Peanut butter is rich in fiber, an essential nutrient for good gut health. Consuming up to two tablespoons daily can effectively promote and maintain a healthy digestive system.
For maximum benefit, choose a brand with minimal ingredients, ideally just peanuts and salt, and avoid those containing additives like sugar, vegetable oils, and corn syrup.
A 2020 study in the British Journal of Nutrition found that eating an ounce of peanuts daily increases the concentration of bacteria linked to healthy liver and immune function.
