Stop eating Margarine

Even though we all know and adore margarine more than butter because of its vegetable oils content, it’s not that good to live longer. In fact, margarine has less saturated fats than regular butter, but it’s absolutely not a healthier alternative. Even if it has less saturated fats, it is full of trans fats (trans fatty acids, also known as TFAs). These occur when any vegetable oil-based product ends up solidified, such as margarine. This food will definitely not help you to live longer.

A study published back in 2011 by the Journal of Nutritional Biochemistry revealed that the mice fed with a high trans fatty acids diet for a period of 24 weeks ended up showing plaque buildups in the arteries. The authors of this study and research concluded that trans fatty acids inhibit a vital protein function. One that regulates the renewal of the cells and strengthens the immunity of our heart against some diseases.
