When feeling hungry, I ate peanut butter instead of peanuts or jam... Did it cause changes in blood vessels and aging?

Peanuts are a nutritious food that is good for the body when eaten in moderation. Pure peanut butter, contrary to its taste, also contributes to health. Spreading it on whole wheat bread instead of sugary jam can be a great healthy breakfast. However, be careful not to overeat out of boredom, as it can lead to excessive calorie intake. Let's learn more about peanuts.

 

Muscle maintenance, vascular health, skin elasticity, anti-aging... What are the health benefits of peanuts?

 

Consistently eating peanuts helps maintain muscle and promotes vascular health. They contain 25.7% protein and 33% unsaturated fatty acids that reduce triglycerides and bad cholesterol in the blood (National Standard Food Composition Table). They aid blood circulation and help prevent arteriosclerosis, which narrows blood vessels, as well as heart and cerebrovascular diseases. Peanuts are also rich in vitamin E, which protects cells in the body, maintains skin elasticity, and slows aging. They contain many vitamins such as B1, B2, niacin, B5, E, pantothenic acid, and folic acid, as well as essential amino acids like isoleucine, leucine, and lysine.

The benefits of peanuts remain the same... When purchasing peanut butter, check the saturated fat and sugar content.

 

Carefully examine the nutrition label when purchasing peanut butter. Although it is labeled as "butter," the health benefits of peanuts remain intact. Spreading it on whole wheat bread can make a delicious meal. These days, some people even spread it on apples, claiming it is good for health. It provides a significant sense of fullness, which can help prevent overeating during meals. However, some products contain added sugar and other oils. When buying, carefully check the nutrition facts to verify the levels of saturated fat and sugar to ensure a healthy intake of peanut components.

 

High fat and calorie content, so overeating is not allowed... If you eat a lot, you may gain weight.

 

Peanuts are also high in fat and calories. Eating a lot can lead to weight gain. The calorie content of 100g of peanuts is 520 kcal. This is higher than a bowl of rice (about 210g, 300 kcal). 100g of peanuts is about 140 pieces. It is recommended to eat about 20-25 pieces at a time. Other nuts like walnuts should also be avoided in excess. Olive oil, which is rich in healthy unsaturated fatty acids, is also similar. Shelled peanuts are prone to rancidity and should be stored in the refrigerator or freezer. If they smell bad or feel too dry, it is best to avoid them.

 

Peanut porridge, peanut braised dishes, and various other recipes... Be cautious of allergies.

 

Peanuts go well with squid. When eaten together while drinking alcohol, the taurine content helps break down the alcohol, reducing hangover symptoms. However, peanuts can cause allergies in some people. If you experience swelling of the skin or difficulty breathing after eating peanuts, it is best to avoid them. Adding peanuts to vegetable-fruit salads can enhance the nutty flavor and boost health benefits. They also go well in stir-fried anchovies. Peanuts can be used in various dishes such as peanut porridge and peanut braised dishes.

 

 

============

It seems that peanuts are the issue these days.

It seems that 20 to 30 items a day is just right.

 

If it's excessive, it definitely harms health.

 

Peanut porridge or braised dishes.

Apples and peanut butter too. Peanuts are quite popular.
