Although most fruits contain Carbohydrate carbs primarily, avocados are loaded with fat.
In fact, avocados makes up more than 80% fat, calories, more fat than most animal foods.
The main fatty acid is a monounsaturated fat called a miracle acid. It is the fatty acid in olive oil, associated with various health benefits (4, 5).
Avocados is one of the best sources of potassium in food, even 40% more potassium than the bananas, which is usually high potassium food.
They are a great source of fiber, and studies have shown that they may reduce LDL cholesterol and triglycerides while raising HDL ("good") cholesterol (6, 7, 8).
Although they are higher in fat and calories, one study shows that those who eat avocados reduce less weight and have fewer stomachs than those who do not (9).

of the highest scoring foods tested, even outranking blueberries (13).
Some of the antioxidants in it have potent biological
activity, and can lower blood pressure and protect LDL cholesterol in the blood
from becoming oxidized (14, 15).
Studies also show that people who eat dark chocolate 5 or
more times per week are less than half as likely to die from heart disease,
compared to people who don't eat dark chocolate (16, 17).

are from fat (20).

on the planet.

healthy, is fatty fish.

and herring.

acids, high quality proteins and all sorts of important nutrients.

do not have high levels of heart disease, and are in excellent health (40, 41).
Coconut fats are actually different than most other fats,
and consist largely of medium-chain fatty acids.
These fatty acids are metabolized differently, going
straight to the liver where they may be turned into ketone bodies (42).
Studies show that medium-chain fats suppress appetite,
helping people eat fewer calories, and can boost metabolism by up to 120
calories per day (43, 44).
Many studies show that these types of fats can have benefits
for people with Alzheimer's, and they have also been shown to help you lose
belly fat (45, 46).
Coconuts are very high in medium-chain fatty acids, which
are metabolized differently than other fats. They can reduce appetite, increase
fat burning and provide numerous health benefits.
10. Full-Fat Yogurt

dairy products.

can have powerful effects on your health.

digestive health, and may even help fight heart disease and obesity (47, 48,
49).

are low in fat, but loaded with added sugar instead.
It is best to avoid those like the plague.
