I can't believe it's not....Margarine

Away with the margarine I say!
Hey everyone! I'm so excited to introduce you all to my old best friend, I haven't hung with him in awhile since he was sorta shunned but now everything's smooth sailing and he's part of the cool kids club, so without further ado let me introduce to you BUTTER!


Yes! and with the food porn butter pic I bring good news! The good news is that butter is actually part of a heart healthy balanced diet. Yeah, no need to check your eyes, butter is not the enemy and heres some reasons why!

1. Butter has tons of fat soluble vitamins A, E and  most importantly K2 which is pretty rare in standard diets and it aids in bone healthy and regulating calcium in our body
2. Butter has friendly saturated fat, the kind that raise HDL or (good cholesterol) 
3. Butter can lower the risk of heart disease due to vitamin K2 intake
4. Butter contains an essential fatty acid (Butyrate) that protects the digestive system 
5. It's delicious! so go ahead and use butter, within moderation always but no need to fear it any longer!
