HERE'S A SURPRISE FOOD THAT REDUCES CHOLESTEROL

It's avocado! The Journal of the American Dietetic Association reported that avocados have a chemical called beta-sitosterol that reduces the amount of cholesterol absorbed in food. And avocados have more beta-sitosterol than any other fruit. The fat in avocado (30 grams) is even the good heart healthy kind - monounsaturated fats!
