An avocado a day keeps the doctor away.

New research has found that eating one avocado every single day is associated with health benefits, including improved sleep and diet quality.

“We do know from prior work that avocado intake is linked to lowered risk of cardiovascular disease,” Penn State University postdoctoral scholar Dr. Janhavi J. Damani, who was involved in the study, told Healio.

The research, presented recently at the conference Nutrition 2024 in Chicago, builds upon past studies that examined the health benefits of avocado, suggesting that avocadoes can “improve cardiovascular risk factors by reducing total cholesterol and LDL-C without adversely affecting body weight,” according to Damani.

Throw in an “apple a day” and cover all the bases.

Who knows they may be correct?

Ideally how much trans fat should we eat a day?

Zero, and the same goes for saturated fat and cholesterol.

Guess it’s YET ANOTHER thing one should do.
