Why is Avocado good for our skin

Avocado oil does wonder for our skin. It benefits our skin because avocado oil increases the production of collagen. Collagen is the connective protein layer which is found in the deeper layer of dermis which binds our skin. The collagen production reduces when we age. A young skin has the maximum levels of collagen.

Avocado oil application increases the collagen production this results reversing the signs of aging. Collagen starts breaking when we age, however with regular use of avocado oil the collagen breakdown stops and new tissues start developing.

The reason of collagen breakdown is due to sun damage, poor nutrition and various environmental factors. Avocado oil can treat our skin problems and delay wrinkles thus reversing the signs of aging.

For good collagen production it is very important to take healthy nutritious diet. Avocado fruit when eaten raw provide proteins and vitamins essential for our body. The cold pressed olive oil or extra virgin olive oil when eaten with salads provide the necessary nutrition for a healthy skin.
