At 92 years old, Joan Collins continues leaving people stunned with her energy, appearance and glamorous public outings — and after her latest Cannes Film Festival appearance, fans once again started asking the same question: how does she still look this good?
Now, the legendary actress has revealed one everyday food she believes plays an important role in her lifestyle.
According to Collins, avocados have become a regular part of her daily diet.
The British star has mentioned in several interviews that she eats them almost every day as part of her balanced approach to health and aging. And while experts insist there is no single “miracle food” capable of stopping aging, nutritionists agree that avocados offer several major health benefits.
The fruit is rich in monounsaturated fats — the type commonly associated with healthier cholesterol levels and better cardiovascular health. Specialists say these fats are one reason avocados are heavily featured in eating plans like the Mediterranean diet and anti-inflammatory diets.
Nutrition experts also point to another major advantage: satiety.
Because avocados help people feel fuller for longer periods, they may reduce constant snacking and support healthier eating habits overall.
But that is not the only reason experts praise them.
Avocados are also packed with fiber, containing roughly 6 to 7 grams per 100 grams. According to digestive health specialists, fiber plays a crucial role in maintaining healthy gut bacteria, improving digestion and supporting broader functions connected to metabolism and immunity.
Researchers increasingly believe that gut health affects far more than digestion alone, influencing overall wellbeing and even long-term aging.
Nutritionist Patricia Ortega, who specializes in digestive health, explained that many people simply do not consume enough fiber in their daily diets, which can contribute to bloating, constipation and digestive discomfort over time.
The actress’s approach, however, appears to go far beyond a single ingredient.
Collins has repeatedly said she believes in moderation rather than extreme dieting. She avoids overeating but does not completely deprive herself of foods she enjoys.
“I don’t deprive myself of anything, but I don’t overeat,” the actress previously explained.
And her lifestyle extends well beyond nutrition.
Even at 92, Joan Collins reportedly stays physically active through strength training, Pilates, walking, swimming and sessions with a personal trainer — habits many experts say are just as important for healthy aging as diet itself.
Still, after seeing her latest Cannes appearance, many fans online became convinced that whatever Joan Collins is doing, it is clearly working.
And now, avocados are suddenly getting a lot more attention because of it.
