Frequent nut consumption was associated with a reduced risk of both fatal coronary heart disease and non-fatal myocardial infarction.

If you're underweight and trying to gain, yes.

If you're dieting, try to cut it out. A tablespoon is roughly 160 calories. There are much more satiating foods to eat that will actually make you feel full.

It is healthy depending on which kind you buy.

"Peanut butter is a healthy food. To limit your daily sodium intake, choose a natural peanut butter that’s made from 100 per cent peanuts."

Did you actually read the rest of the study you posted?


"In analyses of peanuts and other nuts (assessed in 1986) separately, we combined the two highest categories because of the small number of cases (table 4). After adjusting for age, consumption of peanuts and other nuts were both inversely associated with risk of coronary heart disease.

Consumption of peanut butter was only weakly associated with risk of coronary heart disease (multivariate relative risk comparing women consuming peanut butter ≥5 times per week with those who rarely consumed peanut butter was 0.92 (0.74 to 1.15), P for trend=0.94). The relative risk was slightly stronger for fatal coronary heart disease (0.76, 0.50 to 1.15, P for trend=0.09)."

"Peanut butter was only weakly associated with a risk of coronary heart disease, but this may be due to the addition of hydrogenated fat to major American brands.24"

The paper you posted says that peanut butter (at least the American variety) does not confer the same benefits as eating peanuts, and in fact there was an increase (slight, but still there) in risk for disease. That's from the rest of your paper. OP is asking about peanut butter not peanuts.

peanut butter doesnt cause heart disease. almost every fuktard on this planet thinks that fats cause artery disease,whereas it is indeed cabohydrates that kill people.

look at the FDA food pyramid ....its a fvcking joke.

also do not trust the bmj. there was a guy who was a friend of the editor at bmj.anyway these two faggots teamed up and made "imaginary research articles"
they were doing it for decades lol. i would dare say that almost 70% of all research papers are either fake or wrong.
im writing a fake research report as we speak lol.
