Professor Recommends Avocados Over Apples for Heart Health

A top US professor says we should think differently about the old saying 'an apple a day keeps the doctor away.'

Instead of apples, he suggests eating avocados.

This is because avocados have special nutrients that help keep our hearts healthy.

Apples are good too, but avocados have something called mono unsaturated fats, dietary fiber, and phyto sterols.

These things help lower the bad kind of cholesterol, called LDL, which can cause heart disease.

So, maybe it's time to add more avocados to our diet!
