Peanut Butter Diet
|
Dear Diet Tip, I heard on a recent news station that you can lose weight eating peanut butter? Is there any truth to this. I always thought that peanut butter was fatty, so how can it be used as a diet food? ~ ~ Mona Dear Mona, You are right. Peanut butter is high in mono-saturated fat (the good fat), but also high in calories. Peanut butter has lots of good uses, unfortunately most store bought peanut butter is highly process with lots of sugar, extra fat and preservatives. You can occasionally include peanut butter in your diet but we suggest you don't make it a habit. Two tablespoons of peanut butter contain 200 calories. Most people slap lots of processed peanut butter on bread thinking it's some type of healthy diet. Highly process bread and peanut butter is a bad combination because of the simple carbs.
To lose weight, stick to a sensible
diet and eat 3 to 5 small meals of 300 calories each per day.
Include some type of daily exercise and strive to keep a low total
fat intake. Take our online taste survey so we know the types of foods you like. We'll select the most appropriate diet plan and email all your diet plan information within 24 hours. Click personal diet plan to get started. Sitemap
