WHAT'S SO GREAT ABOUT AVOCADOS?
Nutrient-dense and high in crude fiber, avocados aren’t called the ACE of fruits for nothing--vitamins A, C and E are there in
abundance. "Nutrient dense" means Avocados supply more daily nutrient requirements for fewer calories spent.
Avocados are also rich in folate, potassium, niacin, essential fatty acids, dietary fiber,
riboflavin and vitamin B6 and many other nutrients essential to good skin and coat health as well as good overall health. Avocados have zero cholesterol, very little sodium, and are high in monosaturated fats, the same kind found in olive oil that are known for fighting DLD, the "bad" cholesterol. Ounce for ounce, the avocado is simply one of the most nutritious fruits there is.
