“Eating an avocado a day will keep the doctor away!” ….The health benefits that are shown in studies that come primarily from the avocados will make you think twice about passing them up at the store.These delicious fruits are not only good to eat, but are equally very good for you. Some of the key nutrients avocados provide are: Pantothenic Acid, Fiber, Vitamin K, and Vitamin B6.
OTHER AVOCADO BENEFITS:
-Benefits for people who have Cancer or Cancerous Cells:
Studies show avocado selectively pushes cancer cells to have an increase in oxidative stress which in turn increases their likelihood of dying. At the same time these benefits also support the health of non-cancerous cells by increasing their support of antioxidant and anti-inflammatory nutrients.
Supports Cardiovascular Health:
Some say that avocados are too high in fat to benefit a “healthy” heart, however, many metabolic standpoints of heart health include: blood fat levels ( including level of total cholesterol), levels of inflammatory risk factors, and levels of oxidative risk factors. These benefits are actually improved by avocados. Also the primary fatty acid in avocado called oleic acid is proved to improve heart health.
Key Antioxidants:
The list of key antioxidants provided by avocados is the single most impressive category of nutrients, including:
• Alpha-carotene
• Beta-carotene
• Beta-cryptoxanthin
• Lutein
• Neochrome
These are just a few of the many antioxidants provided by the avocado. An optimal absorption of these fat-soluble nutrients requires the exact amount and combination of dietary fats, which is exactly the mixture of components that is provided by an avocado. If you don’t normally eat these healthy fruits, maybe you should think about starting to add them in your every day diet!
