Looking for a delicious way to get your healthy fats in?
Turn to peanut butter. Peanut butter is an incredibly versatile fat source that will do your body so very well.
It provides a nice dose of monounsaturated fat, dietary fiber, protein, and contains only a few grams of sugar. If you purchase natural peanut butter, you can also get it completely sugar free.
Peanut butter is very filling, so despite it’s high calorie nature, it can go a long way towards reducing hunger on your diet plan.
Just watch your serving size and there’s no reason you can’t add it to your fat loss diet. And, for building muscle, it’s perfect.
The calorie dense nature of it makes it ideal for getting your calorie intake up higher. And everyone could use a little more muscle to power through the day, no matter what your age is.
