6 – Avocados help boost immune system
Avocados are a good source of glutathione, a powerful antioxidant critical for a healthy immune system.
Avocados also contain other immune system boosting antioxidants such as vitamins A, B6, C and E, beta-carotene, zeaxanthin and lutein. Avocados are also a good source of copper and magnesium, two minerals that helps support a healthy immune system.
The fat in avocados helps with the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins A, D, and E.
