Dear Editor,

I have heard that avocado is a wonder fruit. Please share with me the goodness of avocado as well as recommend me an interesting and innovative avocado dish to try out?

Dear Summer,

Avocados are often called one of nature's perfect foods because they are said to contain everything a person needs to survive. Due to this, avocado is a wonderful first food for baby! Avocado may be offered as early as 4 - 6 months old! It is wonderful "good fat" food for baby's brain and physical development, try an avocado as baby's first food instead of refined cereals!

Due to their high vitamin E content avocados have powerful antioxidant properties which help slow down ageing, protect against cancer, heart disease and many other problems. It is used as a base product in many skin and hair care preparations.

Not only are avocados good for you, they are easy to prepare and the recipes are easily available in cookbooks and on the internet. One such easy-to-make recipe that you could try is Avocado-Chocolate truffles. Yes, you read it right! You absolutely won't believe how delicious these truffles are until you have tried this recipe. The texture of the avocado mixes wonderfully with the chocolate. But beware, these truffles are very rich!

Add an avocado a day to your diet and enjoy all it's health benefits.
