Margarine with phytosterols
Margarine with phytosterols contains:
•70-80 calories
•8 grams of fat
•2.5 grams of saturated fat
•0 grams of trans fat
•0 grams of cholesterol per tablespoon
•0 grams of carbohydrates
•0 grams of sugar
Phytosterols are plant-based compounds that are similar in structure to cholesterol. Because of this, they compete with cholesterol for absorption in the body, reducing cholesterol absorption and therefore reducing blood cholesterol. Margarines with phytosterols contain a blend of oils such as olive oil or flaxseed oil.
While a hydrogenated, trans-fat containing margarine is never recommended, the choice between butter and non-hydrogenated margarine is less clear. Your own health goals, medical conditions, and taste preferences can guide you.
Having both on hand, and alternating margarine with grass-fed butter might allow you to reap the benefits of both without contributing to excessive saturated fat intake.
