Eating Avocado Daily Can Help Lower Cholesterol, Says a New Study

Consuming one avocado per day for six months has no impact on waist circumference, belly fat, or liver fat in those who were overweight or obese, according to a new study. It did, however, cause harmful cholesterol levels to slightly decline.

In this study, eating one avocado a day did not result in weight gain and also slightly decreased LDL cholesterol, which are all significant findings for better health. According to Kristina Petersen, an assistant professor of nutritional sciences at Texas Tech University, eating avocados regularly raised the participants’ diets’ overall quality by eight points on a scale of 100.
