Notes
- Why It Works for a Healthy Diet: Avocados are loaded with monounsaturated fats, which help reduce bad cholesterol levels and stabilize blood sugar. The fiber in whole-grain bread and avocado keeps you full longer and promotes digestive health. The egg adds high-quality protein to keep energy levels steady and prevent cravings. This combination slows down digestion, preventing blood sugar spikes, making it an ideal meal for those with pre-diabetes or managing weight. It’s a great source of potassium, vitamin E, and B vitamins, supporting heart and brain health.
