Butter or Margarine? 
 (The Missouri Chiropractor pg 15)                         

The difference between margarine and butter?
* Both have the same amount of calories.
* Butter is slightly higher in saturated fats at 8 gr. compared to 5 gr.
* 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 a few only because they are added!
* Butter tastes much better than margarine and it can enhance the flavors of other foods.
* Butter’s been around for centuries: margarine has been around for less that 100 years.

​

AND NOW FOR MARGARINE….
* Very high in trans fatty acids… Triple the risk  of coronary heart disease.
* Increases total cholesterol and LDL (this is bad cholesterol)
* Lowers  HDL cholesterol, (the good cholesterol)
* Increases the risk of cancer  by up to 5 fold.
* Lowers quality of breast milk.
* Decreases the immune system.
* Decreases insulin response.

And here is the most disturbing fact…. Margarine in but ONE Molecule away from being PLASTIC… This fact alone was enough to have me avoiding for life and anything else that is hydrogenated (this means hydrogen is added, changing the molecular structure of the substance).
You can try this yourself : purchase a tub of margarine and leave it in your garage or shaded area. Within a couple of days you will note a couple of things: no flies, not even those pesky fruit flies will go near it (that should tell you something)… It does not rot or smell differently because it has no nutritional value, nothing will grow in/on it… even those teeny weeny microorganism will not find a home to grow.
Why?  Because it is nearly plastic. Would you melt your Tupperware and spread that on your toast?
