Avacado....

Goes by Avacado, Guacamole, and Alligator pear. This powerhouse superfood is a fruit. It contains no sugar, and offers us 25 essential nutrients and minerals! Due to the fact this fruit is very filling it will allow us to not overeat or eat when we are not hungry because it offers us slow burning fuel.

I would not recommend this when you are in your first two weeks of low carbing because this fruit does have carbs, and fat. Once you are on your third week of low carbing add about 5 slices a day to your diet to recieve the health benefits of this wonderful fruit.Due to the fact avacados have no sugar and have an absence of starch it is good for diabetics or even prediabetics. Adding a few small slices into our three daily snacks will keep our blood sugar levels balanced.

Nutrients/Minerals/Vitamins:

Vitamin A
B complex
Vitamin C

The vitamins C and E together allow antixodants properties to apply when eatting an avacado. It is a great antioxidant.


The sodium and potassium in avocados is what keeps our bodies chemically balanced.The iron and copper help stimulate health in our blood. Avacodos hel reduce LDL cholestrol and are great for our heart. Avacados lower the triglycerides in the blood which is good for diabeties. Avacados are also beneficial for pregnant women because it helps develope the brain and other tissues of the baby. Just like our last superfood spinach, avacados promote eye health due to the cartonoids.This fruit is a powerhouse for vitamin E which promotes healthy and young looking skin also aiding in acne. The vitamin E keeps our skin safe from free radicals. Avacados reduce the risk of stroke and many other things ladies with PCOS are prone to. Reduces the risk of oral cancer, and breat cancer.
