Reading this result
The same name can cover different foods. Juiced, dried, canned, fried, blended, sweetened and dessert preparations are different forms. Assess smoothies, juices and desserts as complete recipes.
Identity and data record
- Within the food catalogue, Avocado belongs to fruits, with the subtype “Tropical”.
- DietVox stores Persea americana as the scientific or reference identity.
- The reference food is plain avocado flesh rather than guacamole, avocado toast, a smoothie or a dressed salad.
- A whole fruit, a measured portion of flesh and a restaurant serving are different quantity descriptions.
- Lime, onion, oil, salt, tortilla chips and bread are separate ingredients when avocado is served in a recipe.
- The imported nutrition reference is FDC ID 171705 in USDA FoodData Central. Match other preparations to their own records.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much avocado can I eat per day to lose weight?
There is no universal avocado portion for weight loss. The reference nutrition profile can help compare servings, but the suitable amount depends on your complete meal and overall intake.
Is avocado fat 'good fat' for weight loss?
Avocado contains fat, but no individual food determines weight loss or fullness. NHS describes choosing unsaturated fats as part of a balanced diet; use the label and your overall intake rather than a ‘good fat’ claim to predict an outcome. NHS
Does eating avocado burn belly fat?
No food, including avocado, can target belly fat. Weight change is individual and depends on the wider eating pattern, activity and health context; avoid treating avocado as a fat-loss treatment.
Is guacamole healthy for weight loss?
Guacamole recipes and accompaniments vary. It can fit some eating patterns, but no recipe or pairing is proven to support weight loss; compare the full recipe and serving with your own goals.
