Dr. Kahleova examines a new study on the health benefits of avocados. Specifically, the research keys in on how they improve overall gut health and increase microbiome diversity, both of which can help keep you out of the doctor's office and fit as a fiddle.

Plus, Chuck dips into The Exam Room™ archives to play "good fat, bad fat" with Dr. Kahleova. How much of a difference is there between the fat found in avocados and the fat found in a Big Mac? Find out as they discuss fat quality vs. fat quantity.
