Guacamole: thank the good lord it's healthy

One of my favorite foods is guacamole. I'm serious. I love it. Me, my mom, and my brother both love it so much that we finally got my slightly panty-waste of a dad (Love you daddy!) to enjoy it. It is amazing. If i had eat only one food for the rest of my life, it would be guacamole. Not that "Guacamole Dip" crap, that adds extra saturated and trans fat and extra calories to a perfectly healthy low-fat snack. Avocados themselves are also great for spreading on sandwiches instead of mayonnaise or cheese and awesome on top of a salad.
The reason i love it so much is because it is SUPER yummy and SUPER good for you. 

Here are some health benefits that come from healthdiaries.com

1. Cancer Defense (breast, prostate, and Oral cancers)
2. Eye health
3. Lower bad cholesterol
4.Raise HDL cholesterol (the good cholesterol)
5. Heart health
6. Stroke prevention 
7. Improved absorption of nutrients 
8. Excellent source of Glutathione (a antioxidant that prevents aging, cancer, and heart disease)
9. Vitamin E powerhouse
