Fat seems to be the enemy of most diets, however, experts agree that certain fats are pivotal to being healthy. The question is, which fats should be consumed? Some assumptions were made about butter in the mid-1900’s, which lead the way for the claim that margarine is better. However, some saturated fats are good for our bodies and the trans fats hidden by margarine are where the true danger lies. So, think twice the next time you make the decision between butter and margarine.
Key Takeaways:
- Butter, once touted as a super villain known to cause heart disease and premature death, is now making its way to a superfood status.
- While margarine and butter may look similar, they are actually entirely different.
- Butter contains saturated fat, while margarine contains unsaturated fat.
“While it might not add cholesterol to your body, margarine is pure poison in disguise.”
