Have a look in the fridge. Still have the avocado you purchased last time? Eat a bit of it now and make it your new daily habit. You’ll see the difference in no time! Here’s what will happen to you:
1. You’ll reduce the risk of heart disease.
Let us have healthy hearts! In the United States of America and many other countries number one killer is heart disease. It affects more than 25 million adults every year. Be smart and protect yourself. Stay health-conscious and make good dietary choices. Include avocados and eat them every day if you want to have a healthy and strong heart and cardiovascular system. The fruit contains low saturated fat. It is rich in unsaturated fat. You know that saturated fat tremendously raises your triglycerides and LDL as well as HDL cholesterol. However, adequate amounts of unsaturated fat help reduce LDL-cholesterol which is also called ‘bad’ cholesterol. Good fats also improve insulin sensitivity.
2. You’ll maintain weight more easily
Sometimes we need to eat fat to melt fat! It might sound strange, but the fact is that fats that avocado contains is very different from any other kind of fat you consume with foods. Avocados can help you maintain a healthy BMI. This fruit is rich in calories. But the calories in avocados are healthy and promote a feeling of satiety hence you do not feel hungry for much longer. If you are not hungry, you do not eat – it’s simple to explain and understand. Also, just like most vegetables and fruits, avocados are rich in fiber. That’s what will keep your waistlines smaller. Avocados are packed with monounsaturated fatty acids. Finally, some studies have revealed that weight-loss programs that are higher in MUFA are far healthier for the heart. They are better than all the low-fat weight-loss plans you might have heard of.
