Avocados are an excellent source of folate, providing 23% of your daily value per serving, which in turn, lowers your chances of heart disease. Vitamin E, monounsaturated fats and glutathione are also

great for your heart.

Cartenoid luteins are plentiful in avocados, more than in any other commonly consumed fruit. What does that mean? That you have extra protection against developing cataracts and macular degeneration.

Avocados provide 3 grams of monounsaturated fat and 0.5 grams of polyunsaturated fat, which keeps you feeling fuller longer, and contributes to energy reserves that can keep you lean.

Studies have shown that prostate, oral and breast cancer risk is reduced by the nutrients found in avocados, thanks to oleic acid. If you eat an avocado you will diminish

your chances of getting cancer that could have been brought on by lifestyle choices or that would have otherwise been hereditary.

You can bid wrinkles "farewell" and get ready for blood circulation to your heart to be in full-force. Avocados will keep you looking and feeling younger, so there's no reason to ditch the green gift from the Gods,
