1. High concentration of fibers

A whole avocado fruit contains 10 grams of fibers.

2. Contains vitamins C, E, K, folic acid, magnesium, and potassium.

Which makes avocado perfect for healthy skin. Being rich in vitamin E makes it a good source of anti-oxidants that is why it helps protect the skin from wrinkles and damage caused by sun, smoke, and pollution.

3. 60% of the fat in avocado is monosaturated and it contains no cholesterol.

Monosaturated fats are heart-healthy. A study published in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition showed that 0.5 to 1.5 avocado per day is the most effective way in lowering cholesterol without decreasing the HDL (healthy) cholesterol. These unsaturated oils in avocado are in the second position after olive oil. Scientists believe that these healthy fats help to maintain the water level in your skin and supply the skin with the fats that keep the bricks and mortar of the skin healthy. This translates into less itchy, healthy-looking, glowing skin.

4. Low level of carbohydrates.

That is why, ladies, you will not gain much weight when adding avocados to your diet!

5. Contains omega-3

Omega-3 is good for your joints, skin, vision, brain, heart, helps lower bad cholesterol levels and even boosts fertility. Omega-3 is a well known anti-ager and an anti-inflammatory. Adding avocado to your diet helps control acne.
