Butter


What could be better than the taste of butter? If you choose wisely and use sparingly, butter can be a healthy ingredient in your disease-fighting, anti-aging arsenal.

Once maligned due to a high saturated fat content, butter is now getting another churn. Because saturated fats do not oxidize as readily as polyunsaturated fats, they work well under the high-heat of sauteeing with less concern for creating harmful lipid oxidation products (LOPs).

HEALING TIP: It is important to only choose organic butter made from the milk of cows who have not been given hormones or consumed feed laiden with pesticides.
