Avoiding Browning in Avocados

To help prevent an already sliced avocado from browning, sprinkle lemon juice on the exposed flesh, and then refrigerate in a plastic bag. One cup of avocado has 23% of the recommended daily value of folate. Studies show that people who eat diets rich in folate have a much lower incidence of heart disease than those who don t. The vitamin E, monounsaturated fats, and glutathione in avocado are also great for your heart.
