Conclusions:
Avocados have a unique nutrient and bioactive profile that appears to play an important role in reducing LDL oxidation, hence decreasing LDL atherogenicity. Additional long-term prospective and intervention studies are needed to evaluate the effect of avocado consumption on clinical CVD outcomes and determine the role that avocados may play in the primary and secondary prevention of CVD.

Conclusions:
Including one avocado per day in a heart-healthy diet lowers plasma oxidized LDL and lutein concentration; the benefits extend beyond their fatty acid content. The change in oxidized LDL by diet was correlated with a change in small LDL but not large LDL particles.
