About Half of an organic avocado
Half of an organic avocado is a nutrient-packed delight that originates from Central and South America, where it has been a dietary staple for centuries. This creamy fruit is rich in heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, which can help maintain cholesterol levels. Known for its versatility, avocado is a key ingredient in Mexican cuisine—used to make guacamole—and is enjoyed globally in salads, smoothies, toast, and sushi. A single half contains fiber for digestion, potassium for muscle function, and antioxidants like vitamin E and C that support overall health. It also provides small amounts of B vitamins and folate, which are vital for energy and cell repair. While avocados are calorie-dense due to their fat content, these are healthy fats that promote satiety and a balanced diet when consumed in moderation. Low in sugar and sodium, an organic avocado is a wholesome choice for anyone seeking natural nutrition.
