boiled salty peanuts
They are delicious and we all know it, what diet can they fit into? A low carb diet? A Bulker?
Or no where?
Explain?

peanuts actually should be a no-no. they contain lectin, an indigestible protien that acts like glue, binding to the walls of your arteries. Lab techs feed pb to rats and mice in order to give the atherosclerosis in order to study it.

Peanuts can work as a pro/fat meal.
Almonds are best IMO for a pro/fat meal.
Natty Peanut butter is excellent too.Last edited by audis4; 08-30-2006 at 10:07 PM.

sorry, peanut oil, though mainly monounsaturated, is NOT a healty oil.

Lectin may contribute to the atherogenicity of peanut oil.

Peanut oil is unexpectedly atherogenic for rats, rabbits, and primates. The lesions it produces are more fibrous than fatty. The mechanism underlying the atherogenicity of peanut oil has been elusive. Randomization of peanut oil reduces significantly its atherogenic properties, but native and randomized peanut oils have similar rates of lipolysis, and rats fed the two oils absorb and transport lipids in a similar fashion. Peanut oil differs from other oils in having a relatively high lectin content, and the randomization process markedly reduces the lectin content as well. The biologically active lectin of peanut oil has an affinity for glycoproteins found specifically on arterial smooth muscle cells. Peanut lectin has been shown to stimulate growth of smooth muscle and pulmonary arterial cells. Vigorous washing of peanut oil reduces its lectin content by 46%. Compared to rabbits fed cholesterol and peanut oil, rabbits fed cholesterol and washed peanut oil exhibited less severe atherosclerosis in the aortic arch (by 9%) and in the thoracic aorta (by 31%). The data suggest that peanut oils' endogenous lectin may contribute significantly to its atherogenic properties.

If seen good studies on it too...I'm not too worried about it. Still going to eat it everyday. Thanks for the post.

Thanks for all the info. I have always heard that peanuts were good?

For me it's a personal choice; why eat peanuts when there are questions about it's affect on peoples health, when there are alternatives that taste much better that are unquestionably good for you.
Audis, i would like to see some studies that indicate that peanuts/peanut oils are heart healthy

San Francisco, April 20, -- Findings of a study demonstrating that diets high in peanuts, peanut butter and peanut oil are as effective as olive oil in protecting against heart disease and are more heart healthy than very low fat diets were announced today at the Experimental Biology annual meeting in San Francisco.
In the study, conducted by researchers at The Pennsylvania State University and the University of Rochester in New York, 22 healthy subjects with slightly elevated blood cholesterol levels consumed five diets -- low fat, olive oil, peanut/peanut butter, peanut oil, and typical American -- for four weeks each.
Results show that the peanut/peanut butter, peanut oil and olive oil diets (all low in saturated fat and cholesterol and high in monounsaturated fat), which lowered total and LDL cholesterol and triglycerides levels, did not lower the beneficial HDL cholesterol levels. The low fat diet did lower LDL cholesterol levels but also lowered HDL cholesterol and increased triglyceride levels.
Compared to the typical American diet, subjects consuming the diet enriched with peanuts and peanut butter experienced a 11% reduction in total blood cholesterol levels and a 14% reduction in LDL cholesterol levels. HDL cholesterol levels did not change. When the subjects consumed the diet enriched with peanut oil, their blood cholesterol levels had similar heart healthy changes. The olive oil enriched diet did not affect blood cholesterol levels any differently -- total cholesterol levels were decreased by 11%, LDL cholesterol decreased by 15% and HDL cholesterol levels remained unchanged.

I'm sorry, a study funded by the peanut institute? C'mon, get some unbiased info on here, do you really think that this is objective science? That paper hasn't even been published.
In summary, OO, P/PB, and PO can be used interchangeably in high-MUFA, low-SFA diets, creating additional diet planning options for the development of diets designed to lower TC and LDL-C. Moreover, these diets are all superior to low-fat, low-SFA diets because they do not elevate TG. Funded by The Peanut Institute

This has made me curious, so i did some more searching, and i found out that while peanut oil does improve blood lipid profile (as one would expect), that it rapidly develops lesions on blood vessals. See my above post for a hypothosis for the reason why.
