Avocado Benefit #7: Pregnancy
Vitamin B6 has been known to help relieve symptoms of dizziness and nausea which are common symptoms of morning sickness, a pregnancy symptom. Avocados are rich in vitamin B6 and have proven to be a healthy snack for pregnant women. Although the mechanisms behind why vitamin B6 is so effective for morning sickness are unknown, its wide acceptance of use has become a standard treatment for pregnant women.
Avocados also contain folate, a B vitamin taken during pregnancy. Folate is often attributed with pregnant women as a means to prevent neural tube defects in newborn children.
