Creamy, versatile, and nutrient-packed, the avocado (commonly called avo) is a fruit native to Central and South America. Rich in heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, avocados are known for supporting cardiovascular health and promoting good cholesterol levels. They are an excellent source of vitamins C, E, K, and several B vitamins, as well as potassium and dietary fiber, which aid digestion and help maintain healthy blood pressure. A staple in Mexican cuisine, avocados are the key ingredient in guacamole and feature prominently in dishes worldwide, from sushi rolls to salads and toast. Though calorically dense due to their fat content, their high nutrient profile makes them a healthy addition to most diets when consumed in moderation. Packed with antioxidants, avocados may also support skin health and reduce inflammation. With no cholesterol or sodium, they are a wholesome option for snacks, spreads, or additions to meals.
