Here are some benefits of avocado in controlling cholesterol.

- Contains a lot of monounsaturated fat

Avocados contain monounsaturated fatty acids, a type of healthy fat. These unsaturated fats can improve heart health by lowering bad cholesterol levels while maintaining good cholesterol levels, according to the American Heart Association.

- Rich in fiber

Avocados are a great source of fiber, which can improve good cholesterol and help lower bad cholesterol levels, according to the United States Department of Agriculture.

Eating two servings of avocados a week to control cholesterol can reduce the risk of heart disease by 16%, according to a study published in the American Heart Association.

- Reduce triglyceride levels

A meta-analysis published in the Journal of Clinical Lipidology found that replacing animal fats with avocados reduced bad cholesterol and triglyceride levels. This suggests that replacing unhealthy fats with avocados may reduce triglyceride levels and support heart health.
