We all know what good are almonds for our skin and hair and brain and our overall living. There is nothing different I am going to tell you today except for recounting everything again so that you get yet another reason of liking almonds again.
First, eating almonds soaked in water overnight everyday is very good for our brain. It is especially good for the growing kids as they need more nourishment. The almonds have been found to increase the brain activity considerably.
Second, almonds is extremely good for skin, hair and overall health. Daily ingestion of adequate almonds nourish our skin and make it look more beautiful from the inside. It also prevents early aging of your skin. Same goes for the hair. You will see an immediate change in a matter of month of starting to take almonds everyday first thing in the morning.
Third, almonds are not only great for internal care but also for external. So, today, I wanted to share a very small tip with you about eating almonds. Please do not peel the almonds and throw away the skin. Skin of almond is fiber and necessary for our body. Second is almonds are supposed to be taken with milk. So, take the soaked almonds and a little milk and make a paste. Ingest the paste. It is said to be delicious in its own way. You can even use this paste to scrub your skin.
One should not eat more than 5 almonds a day as it increases the body heat. This caution is for the people who live in tropical climate or hot climate; especially if you are not sitting in air-conditioner all day long . In cold areas, you can eat as many almonds as you feel like. So, this is for people who feel that they can live on dry fruits all day, please do not excessively take them and increase your body heat which will give rise to a varied number of problems like constipation, outbreaks on the skin, excessive sweating and many internal problems.
Thanks a lot for telling that almonds should not be eaten more than 5 a day! I have ~6-7 and I find that my skin is always dry n cracked. Same applies to my hair n lips too 🙁
Its summer still I have dry chapped lips and skin. Please tell me are there any home remedies to avoid it?
for your hair avocado is very good mixed with coconut oil leave it on your hair for atleast 30 minutes or an hour before washing your hair.
To moisturize your skin and hair you can use aloe Vera gel. You can use it alone or can mix it with virgin coconut oil or extra virgin olive oil. It ll definitely help you.
Hi Ranjita 🙂 yeah 6-7 is fine actually…you can go up to 10 but frankly speaking I am having doubts on how many almonds should be eaten a day…probably there is no limitation as such…I shall do a post again on this 🙂
and regarding your skin…it might be due to the fact that you are deficient in B-complex vitamins…I shall be posting on this topic in detail tomorrow so check out the post 🙂
Almonds are absorbed by your body best when it is eaten either powdered or soaked overnight. You can eat up to 10-20 almonds a day depending upon your body weight.
DISCLAIMER: !!!But first check if you are allergic to almonds.!!!!
thanks for this awesome tip 🙂

Hi Everyone and Swati Murti: I Was informed by a friend who is Hindi to take 10 Almonds and soak over night, then peel in the morning and eat them for Clearing Your Mind/Brain. So I began yesterday and today is my second day. But I was told to peel and eat the Almond, not the Skin. So my Questions are: 1) only 10 Almonds or is 12 good?
2) peel and not eat skin or eat the skin too?
3) KAREN: you said Avocado & Coconut oil on Hair is good but how to prepare and how long on Hair and should I put on Dry Hair or Wet Hair?
Thank you in advance for your time and answers to help me. This is, indeed, a good post.
Hi Ivy
Answering your questions respectively:
1. in case, you are living in a tropical climtae, 5 almonds are more than enough. If you live in a climate where the temperatures are less, you can take around 8 almonds.
2. I would generally suggest to eat the skin as well but some people do not like the taste so it is your preference.
3. you should apply hair masks or hair oils on a slightly damp hair. spray your hair with water and then apply the oil / mask. you can use avocado oil or mash avocado into a smooth paste for a hair mask.
hope these answers help. do let me know in case of any doubts 🙂

Hi!
Im Magri,

Thanks.
hi Magrita. yes, it is absolutely fine 🙂
Hiii…. I have recently started consuming 1 amla n 3 almonds everyday in the morning. It is the first thing I do after getting out of bed will it benefit me? Am I going on the right track of diet??
hi Ankita. doing just this is not enough if you are planning on a proper diet. there are a whole lot of other things like drinking water, taking lot of fruits, eating more proteins and complex carbohydrates instead of simple carbohydrates like maida, etc. also, drink lemon water every morning to kick start your system. it detoxifies your body. I am not sure if amla works the same way as lemon but yes it has its own benefits. you can go for 5-6 almonds as well 🙂 hope this helps!

Hey,
m living in Canada and my personal trainer has given me a diet with 20 almonds per day… as i am confused about the heat thing. i am not sure if i should eat or not. talked abt this with trainer and he said its okay. Maybe because of the climate here which is low as compared to India.. i too drink at least 3 to 4 ltr of water in a day seperately from my protein shakes and eat strawberries with yogurt too. as required in my diet.. But still can you tell me what should i do? eat them directly or put them in water over night or shuldnt even eat them at all.. !!
Thank you
My weight is increasing, is almond reason for this
nice to read all the comments and reply. good quality fruits, dry fruits and fruits , water are very good for health always. it is also suggestible to do exercise daily. dieting is not just reducing the intake food, dieting means just balancing and controlling your food habit for better health. suppose instead of having your regular break fast or dinner, you can change that to fruits & juice, or some other healthy foods. all the human beings body structure are different from each, therefore it may be good for consulting with your doctor before going for a diet and etc…

I only eat 2 almonds a day cause I hate the taste, it is enough or should I eat more.
you could increase it to 5-6! or may be powder the almonds and mix them with your milk or oats.
