Avacados: good for you; good for your gut

Avacados: good for you; good...
We already know that avacados are good for us. A large part of the reason is avacados are high in monounsaturated heart healthy fiber.

A study by the University of Illinois Division of Nutritional Sciences was conducted on 163 young adults who ate avocado every day, according to a December 14 2020 article in Neuroscience News. Researchers found a greater abundance and diversity of gut microbes that break down fiber, reduced bile acids, and increased short chain fatty acids among the test subjects, according to Sharon Thompson, graduate student of the University of Illinois nutritional science program.

The study was led and co-authored by Dr. Hannah Holscher, assistant professor of nutrition in the Department of Food Science and Human Nutrition.
