Avocados are in season in Nigeria and as a Nigerian fitness and nutrition expert,  I'm so glad as it has several benefits. A. Avocados contain lutein, a carotenoid that works as an antioxidant and helps protect against eye disease. B. Avocados also contain oleic acid, a fat that activates the part of your brain that makes you feel full. C. Avocados are rich in both soluble and insoluble fibre which aid proper digestion. D. They are packed with beneficial mono -unsaturated fat, this slows digestion and helps keep blood sugar from spiking after a meal. E. Avocados are a rich source of folate (as in folic acid) which is essential for conception and for protecting babies in the womb. These are just a few benefits. Here are some ways avocados can be integrated into your meals 1. Eat with boiled/grilled yam/sweet potatoes  (My mother-in-law loves this) 2. Mix with fresh lemon juice and olive oil to create a heart friendly salad dressing 3. Add a sprinkling of ...
