Grass-fed Butter is a Superfood For The Heart !

The heart disease epidemic started around 1920-1930 and is currently the world’s leading cause of death. Somewhere along the way, nutrition professionals decided that foods like butter, meat and eggs were to blame. According to them, these foods caused heart disease because they were high in saturated fat and cholesterol.
But we’ve been eating butter for thousands of years, since long before heart disease became a problem. Blaming new health problems on old foods doesn’t make sense. As consumption of traditional fatty foods like butter went down, diseases like heart disease, obesity and type II diabetes went up.
The truth is, natural foods like butter have nothing to do with heart disease. In fact, real butter that comes from grass-fed cows is one of the most important foods you can eat for a healthy heart.

I am a fan of butter and a fan of Kris. His articles are always set out well and easy to understand.

I am also a fan of your blog and the variety of articles to read.

I only discovered it a short while ago but read it most days now.
