NewZNew (Health) : Avocado or alligator pear is a large berry containing a single seed.

They have a green-skinned, fleshy body that may be pear-shaped, egg-shaped, or spherical.

It is also considered as one of the healthiest food in the planet because they contain 25 essential nutrients, including vitamin A, B, C, E, & K, copper, iron, phosporus, magnesium, and potassium.

Avocados also contain fiber, protein and several beneficial phytochemicals such as beta-sitosterol, glutathione and lutein, which may protect against various disease and illness.

Here are some health benefits of Avacado:
