The aguaje fruit from South American is specifically being heralded as a “miracle fruit for women” because its nutritional makeup does offer several specific advantages for women. It’s a food that can potentially benefit both physical health and appearance.
Aguaje offers a nice balance of nutrients and can strongly promote the health of the eyes, teeth, soft tissues, bones, and skin. It’s long been a sound nutritional choice for native people in South America since it prevents dehydration while providing high quantities of several vital nutrients.
The fruit also offers a relatively high amount of protein for a fruit. Some of its standout nutritional positives:
it has more vitamin A than a carrot
it has more vitamin E than avocados
it has as much vitamin C as citrus fruits like oranges
it is high in essential fatty acids like Oleic acid
it can moisturize and protect the skin from sun damage
it is naturally anti-inflammatory
it has a high electrolyte content
Men can benefit nutritionally from eating this fruit or using the oil as a way to moisturize and protect the skin, but the potential benefits for women are even more incredible.
This is because aguaje is rich in phytoestrogens. Research on phytoestrogens is ongoing, but consumption of aguaje doesn’t seem to have any harmful effects on men. The phytoestrogens can provide almost certain benefits for women.
the fruit can potentially restore fertility
it can be a great natural treatment for symptoms of menopause, such as hot flashes
it can potentially help create a bigger, rounder butt and can potentially increase breast size (women with higher levels of estrogen tend to be a bit more curvy)
its antioxidants can slow down the effects of aging on the skin by reducing wrinkles and fine lines
it can hydrate, soften, and straighten hair
