Flat Belly Food #3 Avocado

Flat-Belly Food #3 Avocados -

Even though these are typically thought of as a "fatty food", it's all healthy fats! Not only is this fruit (yep, avocados are technically a fruit) super-high in healthy monounsaturated fat, but also chock full of vitamins, minerals, micronutrients, and antioxidants. They’re also a great source of blood-sugar controlling fiber! Also, I think guacamole (mashed avocados with garlic, onion, tomato, pepper, etc) is one of the most delicious toppings ever created, and you can be happy to know that it's also one of the healthiest toppings you can use on your foods. Just make sure to make your own homemade guacamole or if you choose a store bought guac, make sure it doesn’t have other unhealthy additives such as soybean oil or canola oil ( canola oil is NOT healthy), or added sugars or creams… you’re looking for a guac that is just avocados, garlic, onions, tomato, and spices.

Try sliced avocados or guacamole on sandwiches, burgers, scrambled eggs or omelets, in salads, or as a side to just about any meal. The quality dose of healthy fats and other nutrition you get from avocados helps your body to maintain proper levels of hormones that help with fat loss and muscle building. Also, since avocados are an extremely satiating food, eating them helps to reduce your appetite in the hours after your meal. Say goodbye to junk food cravings and bring on that lean body!
