Avocados are unique in the world of fruits. Whereas most fruits primarily contain carbs, avocados are loaded with fats. In fact, avocados are about 80% fat, by calories, making them even higher in fat than most animal foods. Avocados are also among the best sources of potassium in the diet, providing 15% of the Daily Value (DV) per 5-ounce (150-gram) serving. In addition, they’re packed with antioxidant compounds. Additionally, one study involving 45 men and women found that consuming one avocado daily for 5 weeks had favorable effects on participants’ cholesterol profiles.
