You might remember us talking about vegetable oils earlier, or hydrogenated oils, as we prefer to call them. Margarine is kind of in the same boat. For decades, most people have purchased it under the belief that it's the healthier option when compared to butter. But margarine is basically a stick of hydrogenated oil, so it's really best avoided.
Most margarines also contain trans fats, which are terrible for heart health and tend to clog up the arteries over time. The great news for everyone is that butter is so much better and you can now make a totally guilt-free switch. It's higher in fat, but if you make sure you buy only high quality, grass-fed butter, the fats are actually really good for you. Start enjoying the fuller flavor and more satiating effects today.
