Avocado

Healthy fats, when consumed in moderation, do not make you fat and actually help your body fight stress. Avocados, for example, are an excellent source of potassium, which helps maintain low blood pressure and fight against hypertension. They also contain Vitamins E and C and plenty of fiber to keep your digestive system in check and your stress levels low. 1/2 an avocado per day is a good way to keep portions in check.
