Date: November 24, 2008 02:26AM I have heard that avocados are fattening and yet I eat several everyday and stay slim. I wonder why that is ? Does anyone else eat avocados and not get fat ? Re: Avocados = fat ?

Date: November 24, 2008 04:10AM Avocados have good fats. Our bodies need good fats (fatty acids) to survive. Do a quick google for "Good fats" and you can read all about it. Re: Avocados = fat ?

Date: November 24, 2008 05:39AM I've eaten tons of avocados and barely increased weight...or remained the same. It's only part of the wonder of an unprocessed diet. I do, however, think most folks are going to be healthier with a moderate-to-low-fat diet (raw or otherwise).

Date: November 24, 2008 06:49PM would body fat ratio change - in women though - ? possibly more easily since men tend to burn fat easilier because of naturally containing more muscle mass and more testosterone which = more mitochondria (power house cells)
so a women might see a difference compared to a man? Re: Avocados = fat ?

Date: November 25, 2008 04:01AM It depends on your activity level and lifestyle as well as the composition of the rest of your diet. I have not found that there is anything magical or special about avocados as far as gaining weight is concerned. I know quite a few people who put on unwanted weight on raw diets due to what I would consider excessive avocado consumption. Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
