想必大家對於牛油果都不陌生，它是一種營養價值很高的水果，含多種維生素、豐富的脂肪和蛋白質，鈉、鉀、鎂、鈣等含量也高，除作生果食用外也可作菜餚和罐頭;果仁含脂肪油，為非乾性油，有温和的香氣，供食用、醫藥和化粧工業用。下面，我們就來看看牛油果的好處吧。

　1. Nutrient absorption never tasted this good

　　1. 又營養又好吃

With avocados, it's all about the smooth, buttery texture and fresh, grassy taste. Nutritional value is just a bonus, which makes the following even more exciting: In addition to offering upwards of 20 vitamins and minerals, including vitamin E (fights free radicals and boosts the immune system) and vitamin K (important for blood clotting and bone health), avocados can help your body better absorb nutrients like beta-carotene from other foods.

牛油果有着黃油般綿密順滑的質感又有清新口感，而且營養價值又為它加分，它富含多達20中維他命和礦物質，其中包括維生素E(對抗自由基並提高免疫系統)還有維他命K(對於血液凝結和骨骼健康至關重要)。牛油果還能保住吸收其他食物中的營養成分，比如貝塔胡蘿蔔素。

　2. They keep you young

　　2.讓你永葆青春

It's doubtful that avocados will make you live forever, but studies show that these fabulous fruits (technically, berries) can make your time on Earth a little bit easier. It turns out that the antioxidants found in avocados can protect against the effects of aging, which might explain why people in LA love them so much.

毋庸置疑，牛油果能讓你長生不老，但是研究表明這些超棒的水果(尤其是莓類水果)能夠讓你的'壽命更長。牛油果中含有抗氧化物質，能夠對抗老化，這也許就解釋了為什麼在洛杉磯的人們這麼喜歡牛油果。

　　3. They have their own festival

　　3. 它有自己的節日

Most of the avocados we eat here in the United States are Hass avocados grown in California, but there are lots of varieties, including one called Bacon (no relation). If you happen to live in the Golden State, check out the annual California Avocado Festival, which has been around for 30 years and includes musical acts, an avocado auction, and the world’s largest vat of guacamole.

美國大部分的牛油果產自加利福尼亞地區叫Hass牛油果，它們的種類很多，甚至有一種叫培根。(和培根肉沒有半毛錢關係)，如果你正好住在加州，你可以查下加州牛油果節，該節日承辦了30年，包括音樂表演，牛油果拍賣，還展示世界上最貴的牛油果醬。

　4. There are countless ways to enjoy them

　　4. 有各種各樣的食用方法

Guacamole is the gateway appetizing staple that gets most people hooked, but that's just the beginning of the avocado's potential. From simple avocado toast and tasty green smoothies to satisfying salads and sandwiches, the rich, creamy flesh can be incorporated into almost anything, including dessert. People have even proposed using a halved avocado instead of a bun for a burger, and you can wash it all down with avocado beer.

牛油果醬是許多人喜歡的開胃菜，但這只是品嚐牛油果食品的入門級。從簡單的牛油果吐司、美味牛油果慕斯到牛油果沙拉、牛油果三明治，奶油般豐潤的口感，幾乎可以和所有的食材配搭，還包括，甜點。有人甚至還建議把漢堡包的麪包皮換成切一半的牛油果，然後配着牛油果啤酒大快朵頤。

　5. Don't eat the seed (but if you're REALLY into it, you can)

　　5. 不要吃它的核(如果你實在愛好，那吃點也無妨)

First of all, if you don't know how to remove the seed in the center of the avocado, get on that. Now, a warning: Despite recent claims that we should all be eating avocado seeds, including research showcasing their nutritional value, the California Avocado Commission actually advises against consuming the seed, but mostly because there hasn't been enough research on it.

首先，如果你不知道怎樣把牛油果中間的核弄掉，那就吃了它。現在，注意了：儘管最新的輿論建議我們應該吃掉牛油果的核，包括舉證它的營養價值，但是加州牛油果協會還是不建議我們使用，因為沒有足夠的研究證明(牛油果核的營養成分)。

　　6. Share the love

　　6.牛油果還能用來分享愛

The best news of all? You can share an avocado with your dog.
