People often think that carbohydrates are the primary source of energy for the human body when in reality, evolutionary speaking at least, it could be debated that fat that is a quality source of energy. As mentioned previously, peanut butter is packed full of healthy fats and proteins, which provide a substantial amount of calories for the body.

What’s more, the calories provided in the form of these healthy fats are immediately utilised by the body, allowing them to not be stored in the form of body fat – and with this, your body could receive an instant energy boost (2). Peanut butter, in small amounts, could therefore be considered a suitable pre-workout fuel source before you hit the gym and train.

✓ Try pairing a tablespoon of peanut butter with rice cakes for a pre-workout or anytime snack!
