Default Avocados for Fertility??

Might be worth a shot.... I got this from a post on my essential oils board.

I do not know if this is going to help-all I know is that the avocado is a "signature" fruit for a pregnant women-the pit resembling a baby in a mother's womb. Avocados have a significant amount of Vitamin E and other fatty acids, which are needed by our bodies. Research has shown that the nutrients in avocados support reproductive health. A patient I had in Home Health related a story of how he has a nephew, who with his young wife were unable to become pregnant. He told them to eat one avocado daily until she became pregnant. Three months later, they reported back to him that she indeed was pregnant! When the baby was born, they named the baby after him. Obviously, this is third party, and not an official testimony, however, it made sense to me, knowing how rich avocados are in vitamin E and other nutritious fatty acids. As a side benefit, avocados actually lower cholesterol, and are great for rejuvenation of the skin. They are truly a
wonderful food. Some people have referred to them as "God's butter".

Rebecca-I also have read some information on this recently too. DH and I have been trying incorporate healthy foods and this is one of them. So I second what you're saying and we've been trying to eat more of them!

Rebecca, do you suppose they work as well when you eat them with Mexican food along with a big huge margarita?

I'd have 3 kids by now if it did. Must have been the margaritas.

I actually bought an avodaco the other day. I haven't eaten it yet, though!! I guess I'm not doing so well with that, huh?

Lisa - That huge margarita might work for some people without the avocado!
