Margarine Or Butter?
helpful hint sent in by rustiluvs
Both have the same amount of calories.
Butter is slightly higher in saturated fats at 8 grams compared
to 5 grams.
Eating margarine can increase heart disease in women by 53% over
eating the same amount of butter according to a recent Harvard Medical
Study.
Eating butter increases the absorption of many other nutrients in other foods.
Butter has many nutritional benefits where margarine has few- and only because
they are added.
Butter tastes much better than margarine and it can enhance the flavors of other
foods.
Butter has been around for centuries whereas margarine has been around for less than
100 years.
Now for Margarine....
Very high in Trans FattyAcids.
Triple risk of Coronary Heart Disease.
Increases total and LDL (this is the bad cholesterol)
Lowers HDL cholesterol -(this is the good cholesterol)
Increases the risk of cancers by up to five fold.
Lowers the quality of breast milk.
Decreases immune response.
Decreases insulin response.
And here is the most disturbing fact....
Margarine is but ONE MOLECULE short of being PLASTIC.....
