Peanut butter sometimes gets a bad rap. Sure, it can be high in calories and fat, but studies have also shown that eating peanut butter can lower your risk for heart disease.
You don't have to put up with weight gain to get these benefits—a little peanut butter goes a long way. Peanut butter's protein can help fill you up quickly, so you don't need more than a tablespoon or two to make you feel satisfied. Plus, the fiber in peanut butter can help prevent blood sugar spikes, which can cut cravings and promote weight loss. Peanut butter is also high in vitamins E and B3.
Besides the traditional snacks of peanut butter on celery or apples, why not try some different ways to get a dose of the peanut?
