They help you to loose weight in the context of a low-carb diet. I'm experimenting it on my wife. The carbohydrates content in avocados is very low, 2% in weight. They also have an high satiety index, an estimate of how filling they are to the average person.

I realized that today there are some new ideas about nutrition. The fact that healthy fats (avocados, nuts, olive oil) do not make you gain weight is one of such revolutionary ideas.
