peanut butter - eazy - 01-14-2013

Peanut butter contains fairly high quantities of dietary fiber, which helps in regulating both blood cholesterol and blood sugar levels. Proteins are present in high amounts together with very important micro-nutrients*such as Vitamin E, Vitamin B3 and large amounts of beneficial minerals such as iron, magnesium, potassium, copper and calcium. Peanut butter contains the same ratio of saturated to unsaturated fats as olive oil, The poly- and monounsaturated*fats in the spread lower your risk of developing heart disease and type 2 diabetes. Excess sodium in your diet puts stress on your cardiovascular system, but potassium can counter the negative effects of sodium. Peanut butter brands with added salt contain two times more potassium than sodium, and unsalted varieties are even more heart-healthy. Peanut Butter tastes great alone, on spread in protein shakes and in a variety of cakes and deserts and should have a place in your diet.
