摘要: Avocado is a fruit which had caloric density of 1.7 kcal per gram and half unit (~70 g) composed by 114 kcal, 4.6 g fibers, 345 mg potassium, 19.5 magnesium, 1.3 vitamin E 57 phytosterols. Approximately 75% fiber’s avocado contents are considered insoluble 25% soluble. The contains lipids that consist 71% from monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA), 13% polyunsaturated (PUFA) 16% saturated (SFA). Recent researches have shown may improve hypercholesterolemia be useful in the treatment hypertension type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This way, plays an important role cardiovascular health. review summarizes potential benefits consumption prevention risk factors metabolic diseases.
