Avocados

The avocado is a rich source of monounsaturated fats for heart health and is packed with important nutrients.

Avocados are high in fat, but this fat is mostly monounsaturated. These fats can have a beneficial effect on your health when eaten in moderation and when used to replace saturated fats or trans fats.

This is also a great cancer fighting fruit. Oleic acid contained in monounsaturate can lower the risk of breast cancer and have been shown to inhibit the growth of prostate cancer.
