Lolo of VeganYumYum.com writes, "This one is definitely freakin' delicious." Because of their high fat content (about 30 grams of fat, the same amount in a quarter-pound hamburger), avocados got the nickname "butter pear." However, the fat in avocados is monounsaturated fat (MUFA), the good kind of fat that actually lowers cholesterol levels and decreases heart disease risk. WebMD cites a 1996 study by researchers at the Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social in Mexico (Archives of Medical Research, Winter 1996) that found that people who ate avocados every day for a week experienced an average 17 percent drop in total blood cholesterol. Also, according to the Mayo Clinic, "MUFAs may benefit insulin levels and blood sugar control, which can be especially helpful if you have type 2 diabetes."
