(Natural News) There’s a lot to be said of the health benefits of avocados. They are an excellent source of healthy unsaturated fats, as well as omega-3 fatty acids. In older adults especially, the fruits increase lutein levels in the brain and eyes which significantly improves cognitive functions, a study in the journal Nutrients reported. The study, conducted by scientists from Tufts University, found that for adults aged 50 and older, those who ate a fresh avocado a day had increased their lutein levels in their eyes and demonstrated improved working memory and problem-solving skills.
