GOOD TO KNOW

The whole story
behind avocado

Nutrition is rarely simply “good” or “bad”. Here is the balanced picture to help you decide what fits your diet.

THE UPSIDE

Why it can be a great choice

Rich in monounsaturated fats that can support normal cholesterol levels when replacing saturated fats.
A strong source of fibre that supports digestion and fullness.
Provides folate, potassium and vitamins E, K and B6.
Naturally low in sugar and sodium.

THE DOWNSIDE

What to keep in mind

More calorie-dense than most fruit, so portion size can matter.
Vitamin K may be relevant for people taking certain blood-thinning medicines.
Can cause symptoms in some people sensitive to sorbitol or following a low-FODMAP diet.
Environmental impact varies by origin, season and farming practices.
