Human experiment proves avocado’s supremacy

Ali tagged a very insightful video from Time Investors in her Instagram story. According to the video, a study was conducted on 150 random people. They were separated into two different groups and were given the same meal with one simple caveat. One of the groups was given avocado with every meal for 90 days straight. The results were shocking, to say the least.

The narrator revealed, “The visceral fat around the belly and internally on the organs dissipated and started to melt away.” If that wasn’t enough, “the subcutaneous fat which is just below the skin. The fat you want to make yourself look young, youthful, plump started to increase in terms of its ratio against the visceral fat.” Citing the redistribution and change of proportion between two types of fats, the narrator suggested everyone should add healthy fats like avocados to their diets. However, this isn’t the only thing Ali shared with her followers.
