Is peanut butter good or bad for cholesterol?


Is peanut butter good or bad for cholesterol?

Good. Peanut butter is high in monounsaturated fat, which lowers overall cholesterol and "bad" cholesterol. Heck, any kind of nuts are good for cholesterol. Just remember, as with everything else, always in moderation.

P.S.: Becks doesn't have a clue -- avocadoes are also high in monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fat, both of which bring down those cholesterol levels.

Peanut butter is not only good for cholesterol, but is also good for triglycerides, blood pressure, as well as a few other critical numbers. The high monounsaturated fat in peanut butter helps to "clean" out arteries so blood flow more easily takes place.

Let's clear something up, here;
Becks doesn't have a clue-- cholesterol is only found in animal products, not in plant products, and that includes peanut butter and avocadoes.

Is pure cholesterol... like avocado you should stay away from it!

Peanuts have a "healthy" fat in them...but they are high in calories so not so good for the waistline. 鈽?/div>
