Fat: 30 Grams ~ Dr. Fuhrman podcast ~ talks about avocados - small amount if you are in the process of losing weight because they are a source of fat, even though they are a good fat, need to consider how many per week
Potassium ~ considered a nutrient of public health concern by the US Dept of Health and Human Services. Americans do not consume enough of ~ this is also why I add this to my water in the morning and evening.
Potassium Citrate ~ ¼ tsp in the am & pm
Helps regulate blood pressure & central nervous system function

Avacado on top of bean chili’s ~ love this and we are coming into fall
Instead of Mayo substitute Avocado with Greek Yogurt in chicken, salmon, egg or tuna salads
Salads & Bowls ~ add it on top of quinoa and baked vegetables, drizzled with EVOO
Pepper & Pink Himalayan Salt
Ripening ~ Hard and Green? Let it sit on the counter for a few days; deep green color ready to eat
Overripe and you want to throw it away ~ don’t! Add that to you salad dressing you are making!
