2. Blood Pressure

We saw that avocados help in regulating blood pressure, but do you know how?

The main reason for this is because they are rich in the mineral potassium which plays an integral role in keeping your blood pressure in check. In fact, avocados are a better source of potassium than even bananas! Unfortunately most of our diets often present a deficit in this important mineral. This is something that needs to be rectified immediately because a potassium deficiency can cause high blood pressure; and this opens the doors to further health issues like kidney failure, strokes, and heart attacks!
