In particular, unsweetened peanut butter is attracting attention as a healthy food because it has a long feeling of satiety due to its high protein and fat content, and because it is high in dietary fiber and unsaturated fatty acids, it can prevent a rapid rise in blood sugar after meals. For example, naturalistic organic peanut butter introduced by E-Mart has been sold out early since its launch in early August, with 40,000 initial supplies selling more than twice as fast as expected.
Peanut butter, which is made soft like butter by roasting finely ground peanuts, is rich in protein and unsaturated fatty acids, helping to maintain a feeling of fullness. Also, peanuts rich in fatty acids, niacin, vitamin E, magnesium, etc. are known as foods with low blood sugar index (GI). Eating carbohydrates that quickly increase blood sugar in advance before consuming them also helps prevent blood sugar spikes.
In addition, unsaturated fatty acids in peanuts are known to be effective in preventing vascular diseases by promoting blood circulation and reducing bad LDL cholesterol levels because they reduce bad neutral diseases in blood vessels. However, depending on the product, saturated fat may be added in the process of hardening peanut oil, so it is necessary to carefully check the nutritional content before purchasing the product.
In addition, since peanuts are high-calorie foods, care must be taken not to exceed the recommended daily intake. In the case of peanut butter, it is recommended to consume one or two spoons (10-20g) per day.
