Why eat avocados ?

The Aztecs have called avocado "butter of God." Avocado is one of the most valuable gifts of nature.

This fruit originally comes from Mexico, it contains a lot of vitamins and minerals : A, B1, B2, C, PP, K, calcium, potassium and phosphorus, and pantothenic acid, lecithin.

Avocado contains large amounts of vitamin E, improves concentration and thinking processes ,also lowers cholesterol and strengthens the immune system and high in amino acid content is good for the digestive system.

I am using avocado as:

1.Face mask :

Such a mask is recommended for dry and tired skin. How to prepare it?

Just half of avocado  mix with egg yolk, spoon of yogurt and a small amount of lemon juice and apply to the face and neck. After 15-20 minutes, you have to wash off the mask with warm water. After such treatment, the skin  will be smooth, and intensely moisturized.

2.Treatments with avocado oil :

Avocado oil  also has a beneficial effect on our skin and hair, known as a natural antioxidant. It belongs to the compounds which have the ability to combat various forms of free radicals, causing acceleration of aging process for skin. In addition, effectively eliminates problems with dry skin and soothes irritation.

3. Pasta with avocado: 

Avocado is rich in fiber and omega-3 and vitamin B6, which accelerate metabolism, due to the favorable consistency and the presence of unsaturated fatty acids is a very healthy replacement for butter.

I serve avocado pasta with vegetables such as: carrot, celery, parsley, cucumber, also makes a great filling for sandwiches.
