Yes: Butter is high in fat and cholesterol. You should eat it minimally - a tiny amount if needed. It's not just butter but all oils - a tiny amount may be needed for cooking and taste but it can adversely affect your health in years to come. Yes, it can cause you to gain weight but it depends how much you eat and how much exercise/activity you do.
