While it contains saturated fat, the avocado is a healthy product. Eating an avocado is far better than eating animal fats or, in particular, hydrogenated oils that contain trans-fatty acids. Eat raw avocado in salads, etc., but skip the avocado salad with Mexican food. Don't eat the commercially prepared guacamole; it is usually mixed with high saturated fats.

Avacado is a fruit. If it contains high cholesterol so be it, how much of it do you really eat? Darren Rieck
