Why Is Guacamole Good for You?

Guacamole isn’t just delicious – it’s packed with nutrition too:

• Avocados are rich in heart-healthy monounsaturated fats that help lower bad cholesterol.
• They’re loaded with fibre, which supports digestion and keeps you feeling full.
• A powerhouse of vitamins C, E, K, and B6, plus potassium (more than bananas!).
• Coriander and lime bring antioxidants that support overall health.

So you can dip and enjoy knowing it’s good for you too.
