Butter Lovers, keep indulging- it's good for you!


I hate butter, but most people LOVE IT!


Here is some great information for you butter lovers. Although butter is considered terrible and problematic by health care providers, new scientific evidence shows otherwise. Researchers have found that the intake of butyric acid, a short fatty acid that constitutes about 15% of all the fat found in butter, which has been associated with reduction of cancer risk and in some cases with reduction of tumor advancement. (Haas, 2006, p. 67)

It is also important to know that when saturated fat is short chain, it offers important health benefits that are lacking in the long chain version. (Haas, 2006, p. 67)
