A healthy Halloween kid’s snack is hard to come by these days, so we went ahead and made our own! Avocados are delicious, and they’re packed with folic acid, a natural vitamin that helps our gum tissue fight inflammation and bleeding.

High amounts of potassium, or Vitamin K, are also found in avocado. Potassium helps make our teeth nice and strong, decreasing the risk of tooth decay! One cup of avocado has over 700 grams of potassium!

Avocados also contain the special nutrients we get from leafy greens called phytochemicals. They’re rich in antioxidants and help protect your gums while keeping them healthy.

Add a dose of avocado to your diet this Halloween and share your healthy, low-sugar Halloween kid’s snack all around the neighborhood!
