Is peanut butter healthy?

[Anonymous]

i see healthy recipes that have peanut butter is that actually healthy?

It really depends on the type of peanut butter (no added sugar, salt, or oils) and how much of it you're consuming, considering that peanut butter is very high in fat. A handful of nuts is what's recommended, so I guess that equals about 1 tbsp of any nut butter.

Yes and no. It does contain some healthy fat, but it just depends how it was made, as its natural form is much more healthier..
You can actually make your own peanut butter (if you want to be a health fanatic) and usually those recipes are linked to it

Other than the added sugar, It's incredibly healthy

natural peanut butter (no added hydrogenated oils or preservatives) is healthy because it has healthy fats and such. but if you eat a lot of it then it stops being healthy haha
