How long will an avocado last in fridge?
I would try to use a cut avocado by the next day; maybe it would still be good the day after. It keeps better if you leave the pit in the cut half. The cut surface might turn dark, but you can scrape that off. Or try sprinkling lemon juice on the cut part before you refrigerate the leftover. Surprisingly, mashed avocado (like guacamole) freezes very well, but only if you make sure that no air remains in the freezer bag.

What does avocado do for hair?
Avocado's are rich in vitamins and minerals like most fruits and vegetables when digested. Although there are a few wive's tales that rubbing this on your scalp will improve hair growth(or sell you on a 20 dollar shampoo bottle). Water-soluble vitamins aren't absorbed through the skin. There is no scientific evidence to prove this and for that reason subjects the statement to complete idiocracy. Vitamin D is fat-soluble or synthesized in the skin when UVB rays are in contact from the sun, almost 2 layers of skin deep. Unless you had an opening in the skin, you would serve less nutritional value rubbing avocados on your head than if you ate it. Certain vitamins in avocados like pantothenic acid have been shown to reduce gray hair in animals and folic acid which helps in normal growth and maintenance of all cells. Don't be pursuaded by a magical avocado treatment, as these vitamins are more abundant in even more common vegetables like romaine lettuce. Your body is centered around balanced chemical substances, so don't even think that "If some is good, then more is better!" because it isn't true. For example, Calcium and Magnesium help regulate the constriction and relaxation of blood vessels. If too much calcium is present this balance might be affected, the arteries might constrict more than they relax and the blood and oxygen supply to the heart might be reduced resulting from a prolonged situation, heart attack. Consult a physician, eat a healthy balanced diet one that is appropriated to your certain needs and you will feel healthier and get rid of symptoms that are less common like hair loss and obesity in other countries than USA.
