What Does PeanutButter
Have In Common With Trans Fat?
NOTHING!
According to the National Peanut Board, trans fat
levels in both commercially prepared and natural
peanut butters are undetectable.
Put another way, research indicates that you can
eat 156 peanut butter sandwiches without
consuming even 0.5 grams of trans fat.
So Much Confusion.
Confusion exists over peanut butter because conventional science says that products made with a partially hydrogenated oil stabilizer, will contain trace amounts of trans fat. A recent study has shown that peanut butter is one of the low cholesterol foods that are made with very little hydrogenated oil. Resulting in no detectable amounts of trans fat in the finished product.
Great Contents
