Avocado consumption and risk factors for heart disease: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Conclusions: Avocado intake resulted in no difference in serum TC, LDL-cholesterol, and TG concentrations, but it did increase serum HDL-cholesterol concentrations, with significant heterogeneity. The association between avocado intake and CVD risk should be confirmed by well-conducted prospective observational studies or long-term trials. PMID: 29635493 [PubMed - in process]
