Today I want to talk about the benefits of avocados and eggs for healthy skin and for healthy hair and nails. I’m not talking about a topical mixture you would apply to your hair. Topical mixtures or oils like avocado oil might give you shiny hair, but your hair won’t absorb any nutrients from it because your hair is dead protein. 

If you want really nice healthy hair, healthy skin, and healthy nails, then you would want to consume healthy fats like avocado and eggs with the yolks. Not use them topically.

Avocados are loaded with carotenoids. Carotenoids are a fat-soluble phytonutrient. Because there is a good amount of fats in avocados, you’re going to absorb these phytonutrients much better. If you combine avocado and eggs, you will have even better absorption. Consuming eggs and avocados on the keto diet, while also doing intermittent fasting, can result in really nice hair, nails, and skin.
