Avocado Consumption Increased Skin Elasticity and Firmness in Women ‐ A Pilot Study

Avocado Consumption Increased Skin Elasticity and Firmness in Women ‐ A Pilot Study

September 29, 2022 By Paul

Avocados have been shown to be a good source of nutrients, such as monounsaturated fatty acids, carotenoids, and phenolic compounds. And some studies have shown that eating avocados can actually improve skin aging. But there are still questions on whether the avocados can reduce skin aging. A study was conducted with women who range in age from twenty-seven to seventy-three. The study went for eight weeks, with some participants being asked to eat an avocado every day, and others being asked to eat their normal diets.

Key Takeaways:

  • The women that participated in this study ranged from the age of 27 to 73 and there were 39 total.
  • The way they determined the effects was by using the elasticity and the firmness of the facial skin.
  • The elasticity and the firmness on the women’s foreheads were higher than the baseline group.

“We therefore performed this pilot study to assess whether oral consumption of one avocado daily for 8 weeks can reduce skin aging in healthy overweight women assessing skin physical characteristics and resistance to UVB radiation.”
