I love almond milk, unsweetened. I always worry about eating nuts because of their fat content.

I remember eating buying fresh almonds from a market stall in Southern Morocco, the difference in those almonds to the ones we buy in shops in the Uk was huge, they we really crunchy, almost, not slightly soft and when chewed they became almost milky. Beautiful! It really made me realise how ‘old’ our food is by the time it is processed, packaged, shipped and sat on the shelves for some time!

Almonds are an excellent source of biotin, which helps your hair and nails to grow strong and healthy.

The zinc that is naturally found in organic cold pressed almond oil can improve and fade acne scarring, and the oil is quickly absorbed by the skin, because it is so light.

Some oils are too heavy for skin care, and just sit on the skin and make you look like an oil slick. Almond oil is different.

I have a very sweet tooth so if they can eliminate cravings then I shall be giving these a try.

I have tried almond milk but didn’t like the taste of it

[Florry]

I have always found almonds to be a softer nut and they taste stale to me! I do like Toblerone and I think almonds are in that aren’t they? :jb:
