Is Avocado Toast Healthy?

By:

You’ve seen avocado toast on your Instagram feed, but have you seen it in person?

Avocado Toast has become a popular trend in American health foods. In avocado toast recipes, unhealthy spreads such as butter are replaced with natural, ripe avocados. When mashed, avocados spread very similarly to butter, and are a much healthier alternative.

Why should you eat avocado toast? We all know it looks good on social media, but it can also make you feel better.

The Benefits of Avocado Toast

The basic avocado toast alone delivers tons of health benefits over a fast-food breakfast or snack.

There are many benefits of avocado toasts. Most notably, avocados deliver the healthy fat your body needs. Did you know that a medium avocado is made up of 75% monounsaturated fats? These good fats can reduce bad cholesterol levels according to the American Heart Association.

Avocados are high in fiber and are known to contain more than 20 different vitamins and minerals. They provide 10 grams of fiber, along with nutritious B-Vitamins, Vitamin C, potassium, and magnesium—just to name a few!

An average serving size of avocado toast delivers the right number of calories to leave you full, but not too full. This is because avocados are high in healthy fats and fiber, which give you more energy and boost your metabolism.

Fiber is also known to aid in digestion and can aid in weight loss. This is why avocado toast can be a great snack for you if you’re trying to lose weight. 3Natives also offers several other meals that you can enjoy while on your health journey.
