Plot twist your OB might love: a study following moms through pregnancy found that those who ate avocados had 43.6% lower odds of their babies reporting a food allergy at 12 months, compared to moms who didn’t eat any. Nothing is a guarantee (talk to your doctor about what’s right for you!), but that’s a pretty compelling reason to add extra guac to the rotation.

What research says about avocados and weight management:
Findings from a randomized controlled trial involving 72 Hispanic families show that increased avocado consumption was associated with higher reported levels of physical activity over six months.
