Should you eat avocado in your follicular phase?

Avocado is still a nutritious choice in your follicular phase. It shines most in the luteal phase (because potassium helps reduce bloating and healthy fats support hormone production), but estrogen is climbing. You feel more energetic, social, and creative, and your body recovers well from harder training.

Verdict

Fats help you absorb fat-soluble vitamins from the rest of your meal.
