Digestion
If you suffer from constipation, gas, or other digestive discomforts, consider adding avocado to your shopping list. Due to its high fat content, you’ll want to eat it in moderation, but this fruit’s high potassium content can help improve digestion. It’s also rich in fiber, which can keep those bowel movements regular and prevent painful constipation, and its low-fructose profile comes with a low chance of gas. One study found that people who eat avocados daily have a high count of healthy gut microbes that help break down fiber and support overall gut health, so they can team up with probiotic supplements to aid your digestive process.
