A member asked:
How healthy is peanut butter for you? is it okay to have some for a snack with some fruit for maintaining weight?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Peanut butter: It's a healthy snack. The fat/ cholesterol content in it - is not if much concern as latest research shows its healthy fat. Salt content is a concern but half to one tea spoon/day with fruits is good. Do not exceed more than two tea spoons/ day.
