Avocado Benefits: The Most Nutrition-Packed Food on the Planet?
In my opinion, avocados should be ranked as one of the top five healthiest foods on the planet. You may be surprised to learn about how many avocado benefits there are.
Why should you eat avocados?
Avocados are truly an amazing food for many reasons, but until recently, you wouldn’t know it. Years of being scared away from fat-containing foods have led many people to overlook nutrient-dense avocados. Today — thanks in part to the low fat diet risk that have been revealed — we know that avocado benefits include critical, healthy monounsaturated fats in addition to much more: various antioxidants, multiple trace vitamins and minerals too.
You may be wondering, is an avocado a fruit or a vegetable? In fact, avocados are actually a fruit. They are great in both savory and sweet dishes.
Despite their growing popularity over the past decade, Americans still seem unsure how to eat avocado fruit, eating avocado simply by putting them in salads, sandwiches. Granted, avocados are a fantastic addition to these dishes. But I have also come to appreciate that, in most countries, they’re regularly used in desserts! Around the world, they’re used in similar ways as coconuts and commonly paired with raw cocoa — furthering their health benefits even more. Their mild flavor, texture and creamy consistency make avocados a fantastic ingredient.
New to avocados and unsure of how much to have or how exactly to use them? As you’re going to learn, for a couple hundred calories, avocados make a filling addition to any meal or snack, while providing nutritious heart-healthy fats, about half your day’s fiber, folate, potassium and more. Packed full of essential nutrients
Avocado Nutrition Facts
So, here’s the deal about avocados: They truly are one of the super foods to add to your diet. In fact, I know of few other foods that are so jam-packed with essential nutrients — especially when you consider how great avocados taste! In terms of calories, one medium-size avocado has around 215 total calories.
But, don’t let that scare you. Because of the healthy fat, fiber and phytochemical content, this super nutrient-dense food should only help you lose weight. And it’s why it’s the featured fruit of the keto diet
Although the “official” avocado serving size is about one-fifth of a whole fruit (30 grams), according to certain studies the average consumption is about one-half an avocado at one time (68 grams). According to the USDA, this serving size provides the following nutritional value:
113 calories
4.6 g dietary fiber
10 grams fat
6 grams carbohydrates
only 0.2 gram total sugar
14 milligrams vitamin K (19 percent DV)
