Nut Butter

Nut butters are loaded with heart-healthy monounsaturated fats. These fats help increase HDL cholesterol—the good kind—while keeping LDL cholesterol—the bad kind—in check. Nut Butters contain good amounts of omega-3 fatty acids, specifically alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) and polyphenols. Since omega-3 fats have anti-inflammatory properties, they can help improve arthritis and other autoimmune diseases.
