This should definitely make some of us out there very happy!
5 ‘unhealthy’ foods that are actually good for you
I have to say that I was especially happy to hear that Peanut Butter can be healthy for you! Happy and extremely surprised … I guess though, and this article does repeatedly remind us, that it’s all good in moderation.
With the ‘wine’ thing, it doesn’t completely surprised me that drinking it moderately is healthy for you. When you think about it, how relax and happy you feel. That has to be good for you, even if it’s just for the spirit. As mentioned though being an alcoholic or a binge drinker would have a different effect.
I’ve heard these before, but it’s always good to be reminded of ’em!
The wine bit, from what I remember, it’s specifically red glasses, up to 2 glasses per day. I don’t remember where I heard that or when, but it stands out in my mind.
Peanut butter is high in fat, but it’s supposedly the “healthy” fat – similar to what’s in avocado. It lowers your bad cholesterol, I think. I could be wrong about that; I’m not a nutritionist – I just play one on TV. LOL
The egg one always makes me laugh. It was once said that “OMG, eggz are soooooo badz for yew! They is high in cholesterol!!!” Then, the nutritional community realized that, while eggs are high in cholesterol, they don’t RAISE a person’s cholesterol.
I think, what that tells me, is what’s bad for you today might not be bad for you tomorrow. Either way, it’s exactly what you said: moderation is key!
