3. Cancer

Yes, that’s right, eating avocados will help you prevent cancer. Let us tell you why.

Avocados are a great source of antioxidants, in particular: alpha-carotene, beta-carotene, lutein, beta-cryptoxanthin, and zeaxanthin. These are some of the most important properties that stand guard against cancer, and you can get them all from one, smooshy, delicious source!

But wait, that’s not all. Avocados are also rich in Vitamins C and E. Vitamin C is known to fight against non-hormonal cancers such as stomach, lung, and pancreatic cancers, and Vitamin E shortage has also been commonly linked to the cause for breast cancer.

Eating avocados in their natural form has also been known to impart better and faster acting benefits than when taken in supplement form.
