The avocado’s nickname can be referred to as the ‘alligator pear’ since this fruit is indigenous to the same areas as these great lizards and they share a similar texture and color in their skin. Though on the outside the avocado may appear to look like a prehistoric beast, the inside holds treasures beyond what you could imagine for your health.
In a study done by Victor Fulgi, two hundred and seventy-six avocado consumers were compared to average non-avocado-consumers. He found that statistically those who ate avocados were generally healthier, not only in nutrition in the body and healthy organ functioning but also in having low amounts of body fat. Fulgi goes on to say the avocado is a holistic, whole body, all-encompassing, health benefit to anyone who eats it. His research predominantly focuses on the extraordinary amount of omegas in the fruit.
Avocados are not just for guacamole anymore. Delicious Hass avocados add great taste, lively color and a creamy texture to ordinary dishes, making them extraordinary.
