Once you learn this, you’ll never throw away an avocado pit again.

  1. Light heart, healthy heart

Its soluble fiber helps regulate cholesterol, and its anti-inflammatory compounds support a healthy cardiovascular system.  Not bad for a pit we used to throw away!

  1. No more cravings!

Low in calories and very filling, the avocado pit can be a real asset  as part of a balanced diet . Its fiber slows down the digestion of carbohydrates and helps you feel full for longer.

Slimming tip:  Add a little powder to a bowl of  plain yogurt  or  homemade porridge  at breakfast.

  1. For skin that glows from the inside out.

Thanks to its antioxidants, it protects the skin from external aggressions, but can also be used as a homemade exfoliating treatment.

DIY beauty:  Mix kernel powder with honey and a little vegetable oil  (like coconut oil). The result: a scrub that smells wonderfully natural and leaves skin feeling incredibly soft.

  1. Stronger, shinier hair

Mixed with olive oil, kernel powder becomes a nourishing hair mask. It stimulates the hair fiber and helps fight dandruff and breakage.
