An odd-looking fruit, or technically a large berry with a single seed, avocados are a nutrient-dense, versatile & delicious food that you should be eating every day if you aren’t already.
Here are some of the top benefits as to why you should be eating them:
1). Nutrient-dense powerhouse:
Pack full of vitamins K, B5, B6, folate, copper, fiber, protein, and of course healthy mono-unsaturated omega-3 fats, all of which are key to your daily nutritional needs for optimal health.

2). Supports a healthy gut:
Due to its high insoluble (75%) & soluble (25%) fiber content, it not only helps to keep things moving, acts as “fertilizer” for your microbiome & helps bind & push toxins out, all of which help to support better overall gut health.
3). Helps support a normal body weight:
Due to its nutrient density, it helps to promote satiety. Plus when combining avocados with other great nutrient-dense foods like pasture-raised chicken, wild-caught fish & organic beans, helps prevent you from overeating as you are eating a well-balanced meal.
4). May help promote better heart health:
Avocados contain a natural plant sterol called beta-sitosterol, which helps lower blood cholesterol levels. In turn, this helps prevent plaque buildup in your arteries & keeps your heart in top shape.
5). Helps to lower inflammation:
Avocados are naturally high in antioxidants & anti-inflammatory compounds like vitamins C & E & lutein that help lower free-radical production, which in turn has been shown to lower inflammation.
6). Delicious & versatile:
Not just to be used to make guacamole or avocado toast, avocados can be used in both savory & sweet recipes.
