: Pass the BUTTER

Pass
The Butter … Please.


This is interesting . .. .


Margarine was originally manufactured to
fatten turkeys. When it killed the turkeys, the people who had put all
the money into the research wanted a payback so they put their heads
together to figure out what to do with this product to get their money
back.

It was
a white substance with no food appeal so they added the yellow colouring
and sold it to people to use in place of butter. How do you like it? They
have come out with some clever new flavourings….

DO YOU KNOW the difference between margarine and butter?

Read on to the end…gets very
interesting!

Both
have the same amount of calories.

Butter
is slightly higher in saturated fats at 8 grams,
compared to 5 grams for margarine.

Eating margarinecan increase heart diseasein
women by 53%over
eating the same amount of butter, according to a recent Harvard Medical
Study.


Eating butter increases the absorption of many other
nutrients in other foods.

Butter
has many nutritional benefits where
margarine has a few and only because they
are added!

Butter tastes much better than margarine and it can
enhance the flavours of other foods.

Butter
has been around for centuries where
margarine has been around for less than 100 years.

And now, for Margarine..

Very
high in trans fatty acids.

Triples
risk of coronary heart disease ..

Increases LDL(this
is the bad cholesterol) and lowers HDL cholesterol, (the good
cholesterol)

Increases the risk of cancers up to five times..in response.

Lowers
quality of breast milk

Decreases
immune response.

Decreases
insulin response.

And here’s the most disturbing
fact…HERE IS THE PART THAT IS VERY INTERESTING!

Margarine
is but ONE MOLECULE away from being
PLASTIC…and shares 27 ingredients with PAINT

These
facts alone were enough to have me avoiding margarine for life and
anything else that is hydrogenated (this means hydrogen is added,
changing the molecular structure of the substance).

Open a
tub of margarine and leave it open in your garage or shaded area. Within
a couple of days you will notice a couple of things:

* no flies, not even those pesky fruit flies will go near it (that should
tell you something)


* it does not rot or smell differently because it has no nutritional value; nothing will grow on it.
Even those teeny weeny microorganisms will not a find a home to grow.
Why? Because it is nearly plastic.
Would you melt your tupperware and spread that on your toast?


Share This With Your Friends…..(If you want to ‘butter them up’ for
better health)!


Chinese Proverb:
When someone shares something of value with you and you benefit from it,
you have a moral obligation to share it with others.

Pass the BUTTER PLEASE

Heard another one
the other day;  a thin film of butter around the lip of a pan,
(i.e.) spaghetti cooking, will keep the pot from boiling over.  A
wooden spoon laid over the pot will also do the same.
