Daily avocado intake benefits heart health
A new study has revealed that eating one avocado per day for six months can help reduce levels of harmful LDL cholesterol, which is associated with an increased risk of heart disease, especially in individuals with abdominal obesity. The researchers conducted the study at the University of Pennsylvania with 786 adults, and the results showed that the group consuming avocados experienced a decrease in LDL particles responsible for artery hardening, compared to those who continued their usual diet. Although the study did not show significant changes in good fats or other types of lipoprotein particles, it demonstrates that adding avocados to the daily diet can improve one marker linked to heart disease risk.
