Avocado Nutrients include: Vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5, E, K, biotin, carotenoids, folate, potassium, zinc; beta-sitosterol, glutathione; omega-6 fatty acids and fiber.
Avocados are mainly used as a savory ingredient to many recipes but is actually a fruit. The monounsaturated fat in avocados can help lower cholesterol, while the omega-6 fatty acids help to thin the blood, help inflammation and improve the blood sugar levels. The B-vitamins help the immune cells to destroy harmful invaders. This rich in vitamin E fruit neutralizes damaging effects to toxins and boost resistance to infection. Avocados is used as a beauty secret by adding it in many skin and hair products or at home by simply adding it directly to the skin for; skin problems such as psoriasis, eczema or simply dry skin, as it is said the oils are similar to our own skins oil. So don't feel so bad the next time you go overboard with the tortilla chips and guacamole or in my case potato chicken and cheddar taquitos!

Avacado's are delicious.
