Look at the nutrition table of peanut butter may scare you – it is a must-eat for every household in the United States, but the calorie and fat content is very high. But don’t let these two things stop you from eating peanut butter, just choose the right kind.
Low-fat peanut butter may sound good. Not so much fat, isn’t it? The problem with low-fat peanut butter is that they usually use more sugar to make up for the loss of fat, which is not cost-effective. For example, two tablespoons of Skippy cream peanut butter have 190 calories, 16 grams of fat and 3 grams of sugar, while the low fat version has 190 calories, 12 grams of fat and 4 grams of sugar. Excessive sugar in the diet can lead to insulin sensitivity or high blood pressure, which can cause type 2 diabetes and other health problems.
The best nut butter is as natural as possible. Try the unsweetened peanut butter – but there is 16 grams of fat in a sauce, so don’t put more when you apply bread.
