How much fiber is in an avocado?

100 g of Avocados, raw contains 6.7 g of dietary fiber, which is 24% of the Daily Value.

What this means for you

A cup of cubed avocado carries about 10 g of fibre, which is more than a third of the Daily Value of 28 g. Very few foods do that in a portion people actually eat.

The same cup carries about 240 calories, most of them from fat, so avocado is a food to enjoy rather than a food to treat as free. Half an avocado on toast is a sensible portion and still a serious amount of fibre.

It also brings around 485 mg of potassium per 100 g, which puts it among the better sources on this site for a nutrient most people fall short on.

Fibre is one of the few things in nutrition where the advice is boring and undisputed. Most people eat less than the reference amount, the shortfall is easy to close with ordinary food, and avocado is one of the pleasanter ways to do it. Beans, lentils, oats, berries and leaving the skin on your potatoes do the same job for less money.
