Avocados have nearly 20 vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients, including potassium, vitamins B6, C and E, folate, and fiber. They have the "good" fats — heart healthy mono- and poly- unsaturated fats — which make avocados a good alternative to foods rich in saturated fats such as mayo and cream cheese. Avocados act as a "nutrient booster" by enabling the body to absorb more fat-soluble nutrients such as vitamins A, D, E, and K.
