Today, let's turn our attention to one of the healthiest and most delicious superfoods out there: the avocado. Avocado is a fruit with a dark-green to brown husk and when ripened, a fleshy, yellow meat. The meat is quite versatile in that you can use it for both sweet and savory dishes.
Avocado is considered a superfood because it is rich in omega-3 fatty acids and just like NS-mart's great food supplement—the MFIII VP Softgels Advanced Formula, a great source of antioxidants, too.
What's more, however, is that researchers have recently found that avocado intake helps you satisfy hunger faster and prevents you from consuming more calories than you need.
It is the perfect superfood for Losing Weight!
A study published in the UK-based Nutritionj.com suggests that regular avocado intake has the potential to help in a person's weight management. Participants in the Loma Linda University study were asked to consume half an avocado fruit in their daily lunch. The participants said that they reduced their urge to consume in a period of three hours up to 40 percent more calories. Participants said they felt satisfied by up to 26 percent, as well.
It helps regulate insulin levels!
Additionally, avocado is not only a superfood for losing weight, but it is also great with your insulin levels. The study found that consuming avocado does not increase blood sugar levels beyond those previously measured before a meal.
Suggested Ideas for Avocado
Given all of the aforementioned benefits, it's obvious that you should add avocado to your daily diet. Other than the quintessential guacamole, an avocado salad with apples and green leaves is a great idea for an appetizer. As a main course, you can add avocado to your turkey sandwich or make veggie tortilla wraps with slices of avocado in the mix. Next time you are in the supermarket, grab an avocado.
