Avocados also contain many vitamins, including vitamins K, E, C, and B-6, riboflavin, niacin, folate, pantothenic acid, magnesium, and potassium. I used to eat 3-4 avocados per week since I got home late from work in NYC. I started to get inflammed in my hands. Once I found out that avocados are inflammatory for Type O blood diet, I stopped and limited them to one per week and my hands are not inflammed now. The heart health benefits of avocados are noteworthy. The monounsaturated fats in avocados reduce LDL (bad) cholesterol levels and increase HDL (good) cholesterol, thus promoting a healthier heart. This reduction in cholesterol levels is essential in decreasing the risk of heart disease, Avocados also contain antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties, These are unique fruits.
