Is it okay to eat peanut butter everyday as long as you eat it in moderation?

Question

I love peanut butter. By moderation I mean eating two tablespoons.

I would say no as peanut butter has A LOT OF FATS in it. Although its good fats, its still a lot for ones system to digest after one meal. Let alone everyday so I would spread that out with other types of foods if you can. The fat in the peanut butter is most likely the reason behind your love for it. Since our bodies have been conditioned to crave fats and carbohydrates for good reason but still in moderation.

Saying as someone who is a sucker for ice cream, especially if its triple chocolate and just got sad last night after I devoured my last bit of mine and cursed myself for not ordering a second during my last grocery run. 😂

Sometimes nothing tastes better than creamy peanut 🥜 butter! Eat it off of a spoon. Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, peanut butter 🍪 cookies (my favorite to bake from scratch with extra peanut butter in the dough). Peanut butter on celery sticks, peanut butter on toast or crackers, and the list goes on! Enjoy it!

For you yes 2 tablespoons are enough, you could literally eat as much as you want as long as you don't pass your weight maintenance amount of calories, like for example right now I'm bulking (gainingweight) for the next 6 months, I'm gonna be eating jars of peanut butter weekly and it's gonna be a good thing

Yes but 2 TBS. Would be the maximum daily recommended amount. It is high in protein and magnesium but peanuts themselves contained some saturated fat which in higher quantities is not that good for you.

I buy the stuff that has zero to little sugar added to it.. I avoid sugar and salt for dietary reasons and I feel great after a workout then diving in a tub of peanut butter. They have some fancy ones out there with protein added to it too..

Everything is better in moderation but I dont think I have that level of self control with peanut butter, its literally one of my favorite things to consume.

This reminds me of an Adam Sandler song.  A gobble gobble here and a gobble there... You can turkey in your under... wear... Have all the peanut butter you can afford.

I’d look carefully at the nutrition panel cuz some brands add a lot of sugar to their peanut butter and that’s generally not good. Otherwise, PB is pretty good for you and delicious!

Why would anyone care about peanut butter amounts...

NathanDavis · Answer

yes, it should be... as long as it is not too much, it should be alright especially if it makes you happy

HippieVeganJewslim · Answer

Yes, it’s fairly OK, as long as it’s made of whole unsalted unroasted organic peanuts with no foreign additives. Still, eating just whole fruits is way healthier.

Peanut butter is very healthy. High in protein, low in fat and it tastes good too.

There are much worse things to eat. You might look into a brand that uses fewer fillers and emulsifiers.
