If you love avocados and the guacamole made from them, more good news for you! According to research reported in the Journal of the American Heart Association, enjoying an avocado every day does your body good. It was a short study, but the results were obvious. The researchers asked volunteers to include one avocado in their diet every day for six months. The result, they found that including one avocado a day improved the volunteers overall diet quality. That is a factor that has been linked to a reduced risk of developing heart disease, diabetes, even some types of cancer. Penny Kris-Etherton, Ph.D., the study author stated, "Incorporating an avocado per day did not cause weight gain and also brought about a slight decrease in LDL cholesterol--all important findings for better health."
