YOU WILL NOT BELIEVE THIS

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  margarine can  increase   heart  disease in  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   total cholesterol and  LDL (this  is the bad cholesterol) and  lowers HDL  cholesterol, (the good cholesterol)  
 
Increases  the risk of cancers up to five  times.. 
 
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')!  

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.
