Eat One Avocado a Day — But Never Eat It Alone | Dr. Mandell

Most people know avocados are one of the healthiest foods you can eat, packed with fiber, potassium, monounsaturated fats, and powerful plant nutrients. But what many people do not realize is that an avocado by itself may be missing one important piece: protein. In this video, I explain why pairing avocado with one simple food can create a much more complete and satisfying meal. When you combine the healthy fats and fiber in avocado with the complete protein, choline, vitamin B12, selenium, iodine, lutein, and zeaxanthin found in eggs, you give your body a powerful combination of nutrients that can help support fullness, steadier energy, healthy blood sugar control, brain and liver function, and better absorption of important fat-soluble nutrients. The healthy fats in avocado can help your body absorb carotenoids more efficiently, while the protein in eggs can help slow digestion and keep you satisfied longer, which may help reduce cravings and unnecessary snacking later in the day. This simple pairing can be used for breakfast or lunch and does not require a complicated diet, expensive supplements, or extreme restriction. One avocado with one or two eggs can provide healthy fats, fiber, protein, vitamins, minerals, and important nutrients in one simple meal. If you regularly eat avocados, this is one food combination worth understanding because sometimes the way you combine foods can be just as important as the individual foods themselves. Watch until the end so you understand exactly why this combination works so well inside your body and how you can easily add it to your daily routine.
