Let me start by saying I LOVE LOVE LOVE avocados!!! 😉 I try to put them on everything I can!
Adding in more avocados is an easy way to add more healthy fat into your diet without feeling guilty about it. Share on XLet me tell you why you should add more avocados into your diet.
- They can help prevent cancer! Say whaaaattt!!! Can you believe there have been studies performed showing the benefits of preventing cancer such as prostate cancer and lowering chemotherapy side effects. (1)
- Helps with digestion. They contain fiber which can be helpful with reducing symptoms of constipation and diarrhea.
- They can help lower your bad cholesterol. You know the LDL levels and triglycerides. If eating a few avocados can help decrease your heart disease risk why not right???
- Prevents bad breath. They contain antibacterial and antioxidant which can help to kill bacteria in your mouth. But most importantly improving your digestive health can help to improve bad breath.
- Helps support weight control. They help you the feeling more full so you don’t have the desire to eat more than you need to.
- They are absolutely delicious!!!
How you can eat more avocados??? Here is a list of recipes to try out!!
- Avocado smoothie
- Avocado toast
- This is one of my favorite ways to eat avocados for breakfast.
- Scoop a ripe avocado in a bowl. Mash up. Add salt and pepper and spread on a piece of toast! Easy peasy right!
