Guacamole and Cabbage Soup Diet

Can you eat Guacamole as a vegatable or fruit while on the cabbage soup diet?
Guacamole is a dip based on Avocados which are valued for its high vitamin and fat content (fat percentage 70 – 90 %) but no cholesterol. Together with olives, they are the only high-fat fruits.
We don’t recommend Guacamole for the 7 day cabbage soup diet but endorse you to use it after it. Here is why:
The motivating great weight loss success of the cabbage soup diet is closely connected to the fact that it’s a very low fat diet program. Incorporating Avocados to the cabbage soup diet program would add a lot of "healthy" but unnecessary fat to your diet nutrition and lead to a limited weight loss effect. Some people will even risk to gain some weight in this week.
After your cabbage soup diet however you should’t be afraid of the fat in guacamole. It's rich in vitamin E and it’s the good, cholesterol-reducing fat.
Choose avocados like you would any other fat source. We recommend to eat 1/2 avocado per day. By this you are eating 3 fat servings which should fit in a healthy eating plan.
