About Half large avocado
Half a large avocado serves as a nutrient-rich addition to any meal or snack. Native to Central and South America, avocados are prized in cuisines worldwide for their creamy texture and mild, buttery flavor. This portion contains about 160-200 calories, offering heart-healthy monounsaturated fats that support cholesterol management. It provides an excellent source of fiber, aiding digestion, and is packed with essential vitamins like vitamin K, vitamin E, and folate. Avocados also deliver potassium, which helps regulate blood pressure and support muscle function. While rich in nutrients, they’re calorie-dense, so moderation is key for those watching caloric intake. They’re naturally gluten-free and versatile, popularly enjoyed in salads, smoothies, or as guacamole in Mexican cuisine. Low in sugar and free of cholesterol or sodium, half a large avocado is a flavorful and healthy choice to nourish your body and elevate your meals.
