Do You Know There is Healthy Fat In Avocados

July 21,2020
Share:

Avocados are creamy fruits packed with healthy fats, fiber, vitamins, and minerals. They’re especially rich in magnesium, potassium, manganese, and copper.

Potassium is a mineral that’s essential for blood pressure regulation and heart health. Studies have shown that diets high in potassium-rich foods like avocados may help reduce your risk of heart disease and stroke.

A review of 33 studies that included 128,644 people found that higher potassium intake was associated with a 24% reduced risk of stroke and reduction in heart disease risk factors like high blood pressure levels.

Meanwhile, Minerals are elements that are found in the earth and food and essential to life. For example, minerals are needed for heart and brain function, as well as the production of hormones and enzymes.

Minerals are divided into two categories based on how much the human body needs. Macrominerals are needed in larger amounts and include calcium, potassium, sodium, chloride, phosphorus, and magnesium.

Although equally important, trace minerals, including iron, copper, fluoride, selenium, zinc, chromium, molybdenum, iodine, and manganese, are needed in smaller amounts.

Minerals can be found in a variety of foods, but some foods are especially abundant in these important nutrients.

Minerals are vital to your health, and maintaining optimal mineral levels is essential to feeling your best. Yet, many people don’t get enough minerals in their diet.

Still, it’s easy to increase your mineral intake, as many foods, including the nutritious foods listed above, are packed with a variety of minerals.

Try adding some, or all, of the foods on this list into your diet to increase your mineral intake, decrease your disease risk, and improve the overall quality of your diet.
