Peaty Peanut Butter

[skittles]

I eat that Earth Balance peanut butter from time to time. I still haven't died. Peanut butter made with high oleic peanuts prolly ain't that bad either. Life is better with a little peanut butter once in a while. IMHO.

High oleic peanuts or peanut butter sound promising if you want to ingest one the most dense sources of aflatoxin, lectin, oxalate, protease inhibitors, resveratrol, fibre, and 12 identified structural plant protein allergens recognized by the Allergen Nomenclature Sub-Committee of the International Union of Immunological Societies (Ara h 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, & 13).

Also, palm oil still has a bit of PUFA in it, but if you find palm kernel oil, it is mostly all SFA. Palm kernel oil will be white in color, as opposed to Palm oil that is a reddish color. If you need some for cooking, this is my favorite site for purchasing oils:
Palm Kernel Oil - Organic

macadamia is a peaty nut

Not sure if sarcastic or not, but walnuts are still way too high in O6

yes but the are pretty unsaturated, 28g of them has 6.7 MUFAs and 6.8 PUFAs, 0.0g omega 3 and 6.8 omega 6.

Yeah but they have those brain healthy omega 3s your body loves so much @Aymen

the ratio of omega 6 to omega 3 is high.

I could eat so much cashews when I was wandering the pufa desert and had not yet become enlighted

This. Following ANY Diet to a T hasn't turned me into Superman. (Vegan, paleo, peat)

So if you want some peanut butter eat some peanut butter.

Yeah you could also mix some canola oil with coconut oil, for some peaty cooking oil.

its so good yet so bad...

 

[Gone Peating]

It looks great thanks for posting.

It has no peanut oil just peanuts and coconut oil, and the jar says there’s only half a gram of pufa. Not to mention it has some vitamin e so this looks good to me.

The only thing about nuts is they can be hard to digest, but this shouldn’t be a problem since they are ground down so much in this product.

Love this song.

Just nuts or gluten probably wouldn't be so bad. Just PUFA, probably we can repair lots of damage on the go. Just mental stress, we would recover quickly and start repairing.

All at once though, as many of us were exposed to for decades, will do significant damage over time. When health is already suboptimal or better alternatives are present, it's best to avoid this stuff in my opinion.

You can actually make peanut butter / oil 'peaty' by eating hydrogenated peanut butter / oil:

"Even supplementing old animals with hydrogenated peanut oil restores mitochondrial respiration to about 80% of normal." -- Ray Peat

Dietary supplementation of old rats with hydrogenated peanut oil restores activities of mitochondrial respiratory complexes in skeletal muscles. - PubMed - NCBI
