8 Ways To Really Enjoy Your Avocado
Avocados are a good source of numerous vitamins and minerals. Including them in a balanced diet can have a lot of advantages; it is a fruit that can be
filled, sliced, or mashed. Any meal is improved by the creamy, buttery mouthfeel.
Below examine a few methods to enjoy avocados that may be good for our health.

Benefits of Avocado
They Are High in Fibre
Research shows that avocados have about 7 grams of fibre per 100 grams of
avocado, making them very high in fibre. It is well known that foods high in fibre tend to keep you satiated longer than other meals, so it’s perfect for weight watchers.
Rich in Folate
Folate, a member of the vitamin B family, is excellent for proper brain function and is fantastic for aiding healthy pregnancies. It is advised that women of childbearing age take about 500 micrograms daily while pregnant
women take about 600 micrograms daily as it helps prevent birth defects in the baby’s spine and brain.
Packed With Potassium
Avocados have even higher potassium than a banana. Sometimes your blood pressure increases due to high levels of sodium in the system, and potassium allows us to eliminate sodium from our body. And what happens when you get rid of sodium? Yes, your blood level drops.
Monosaturated Fats
Monosaturated fats help to reduce the level of bad fat in the body while keeping the good fat. When you have too much bad cholesterol, it could block some arteries, which can cause clots. We’ll take monosaturated fats any day.
