We’ve all been told to avoid butter, especially if we’re watching our cholesterol or concerned about heart health. But what if everything we thought we knew about butter was wrong? In this eye-opening episode of the Functional Nutrition Podcast, I reveal why butter—specifically grass-fed butter—can actually be one of the most nutrient-dense foods you can include in your diet.
Butter has been vilified due its high content of saturated fat and cholesterol. It contains roughly 63% saturated fat and 31 mg of cholesterol in a tbsp.
While most in society are still trained to believe this is bad for the body the studies show the opposite. Dietary saturated fat and cholesterol have been shown to improve hormone regulation and cell membrane function.
They also have been shown to: Raise HDL Levels – the good protective lipoprotein Change LDL Particles – From the dangerous small dense particles to the benign, large buoyant particles
What Makes Grass-Fed Butter So Special?
You’ll learn why grass-fed butter stands out from its conventional counterpart, packed with vital nutrients like Vitamin K2, which is essential for bone health and reducing the risk of calcification in your arteries.
Grass-fed butter is also one of the best sources of CLA which helps to burn belly fat, supports muscle growth and protects against cancer. But that’s just the beginning!
Saturated Fats: Good for You After All?
Dr. Jockers explains why the saturated fats in butter are not the enemy many believe them to be. In fact, these fats support healthy cell membranes, boost immunity, and help protect against infections.
