While I don’t think butter is your best fat option, I do think organic grass-fed butter is far better than margarine, which is processed and loaded with trans fats, which we know for sure are bad. Previous studies also seem to show that overall saturated fats may be neutral, and some, like those found in coconut and cocoa butter, are actually beneficial.
What this really shows, however, is that your health depends on your whole diet. So go ahead and eat a little saturated fat, but make sure you have it with lots of produce, as well as lean protein, whole grains, and other good fats, too."
I like you Don and I want you around as long as possible, but I want you to be happy as well. The small amount of butter needed to make oatmeal more palatable can easily be offset by not eating white bread or rice on the same day you indulge in butter. You need to get a younger doctor, one that knows more.
