Hi,
Just wondering if you can eat too many avocados??? Toxicity wise or anything? I ate about 3-3.5 yesterday, they were very large. I took guacamole and tortilla chips for Easter since I knew there wouldn't be a lot for me to eat (I'm not 100% raw yet as I am sick with lyme and don't want a huge reaction right now).
I still need to gain some weight, so calories aren't a factor for me right now.
Had some emotional release yesterday, crying namely. Exhausted when I first woke up, but feel better mentally/remembering words for the past few hours.
thanks :)

I don't think that's too much. But YOU are the best keeper and "knower" of your body. Don't compare you to me or her or him.
Just keep changing it up, greens and such. You'll be fine.
I wanna add too much of anything might not be good. But what's too much. Too much for me might be just right for you. How do you feel physically today?

If eating lots of avo is helping to keep you raw then do it. The need will pass as you get cleaner.

Don't worry about it.
If you feel like eating avocados, eat them.
It's all good.

yea if i eat a ton of avocados (or fat in general) i break out and feel sluggish and can't wake up the next day.
it really is just up to u though. different people have a different tolerance for different things.

It all depends on your body.
I don't think avocados have any toxins in them that could hurt you in excess. Some people eat several a day for years w/o problems.
Is there such a thing as too many of them?

Umm, define 'a ton' Please. How much before you crash? Thanks

I've eaten 6 avocados in a day once (don't judge me :p) because I had a massive craving. I had to use the bathroom a little while afterword, but nothing out of the ordinary happened. :)
