Accepted Answer

Nutella vs PB: Nutella is made with hazelnuts; pb is made with peanuts. To compare, check the nutrition facts: the protein, fat and carbohydrate content, and the calories. Both of these are vegetarian, so healthier than a lot of animal products, but  also look for added sugar, which raises the calories and is less healthy.   Lower fat and sugar and calories and higher protein is healthier. Brands may differ.

Accepted Answer

Internet myth: Despite the decades of hoopla about food preservatives being horrible for people, the best-attested instance of cancer due to something in a staple food is aflatoxin in moldy ground nuts eaten by the world's poor. Of course, this eventually got hyped into all nuts and peanut butter "causing cancer". You can't totally avoid carcinogens, but you'd be "nuts" to let this fear dominate your life.

Question 8

is eating avocados, bananas and peanut butter healthy?

Accepted Answer

Pretty good : Avocados have a very healthy fat that is great for the body and skin.  Bananas are high in potassium and calm the brain with tryptophan.  Peanut butter is ok, but get an organic brand with cashews instead.  
Do not forget to drink plenty of water and exercise.

Question 9

why do i binge on peanut butter?

Accepted Answer

Bc you like it: Pb is actually a healthy protein.  Eating is an addiction or discipline.  There is not such a thing as a diet. We eat. You have to eat at least 3 times a more, sometimes more. You have to decide: discipline or addiction. There is no in between.  Get professional help if needed. Takes a lot of work to be discipline in life not just with eating. Good luck.
