摘　　要：Background Diet plays a crucial role in insulin resistance and diabetes,with high-fat and high-carbohydrate diets being major contributors.However,the type of fat consumed is critical,as different fatty acids impact insulin sensitivity differently.Objective This review examines the potential benefits of avocado oil,which is rich in monounsaturated fatty acids(MUFAs),in improving glycaemic control and lipid metabolism.It also explores variations in avocado oil composition across different avocado cultivars.Methods Experimental and clinical studies were analysed to assess the metabolic effects of avocado oil.The impact of MUFAs on insulin sensitivity,lipid profiles,and metabolic health was reviewed,alongside the influence of fruit quality,maturity,and cultivar differences.Results Avocado oil may enhance glycaemic control and lipid metabolism,benefiting individuals with diabetes and hyper-cholesterolemia.However,its composition varies significantly across avocado variants such as Hass,Reed,Ettinger,and Fuerte,influencing its therapeutic properties.Conclusion Avocado oil's high MUFA content offers promising metabolic benefits.Further research is needed to standardize its therapeutic application,considering cultivar-dependent variations in composition.
