A gastroenterologist has named a fruit that Russians should definitely include in their diet.

People who regularly eat this fruit receive vitamins A, B, C, E, K.

The fruits also contain folic acid and minerals (calcium, phosphorus, potassium, iron, sodium, copper, iodine, magnesium, etc.).

Avocado is a high-calorie fruit (200 kcal per 100 g). But its uniqueness is that it promotes weight loss. All thanks to easily digestible monounsaturated fats.

Another nuance concerns cholesterol. Exceeding the norm of this indicator is one of the causes of heart disease.

Research shows that regular consumption of avocados helps balance blood counts.

This fruit reduces the level of “bad” cholesterol by up to 20% and increases “good” cholesterol by 1%.
