Having butter in your diet may not be as harmful as previously thought. In a new study, researchers claim that while butter is in no way considered a health food, it’s acceptable to eat in moderation. “[They] found no clear evidence that butter does any harm or good by itself. People who ate the most butter were slightly more likely to die during the various study periods than were people who ate little or none, but the risk was very slight, the team reported in the Public Library of Science journal PLoS ONE.” The researchers noted that the foods you eat with butter – i.e bagels, pasta, etc. – may be more concerning than butter itself.
