Natural Peanut Butter
I was wondering what everyone’s thoughts were on natural peanut butter. I tend to eat a lot of it for the protein, but sometimes I think I might be eating too much. I usually eat a little over one jar of peanut butter a week. I usually eat it with apples, or load it on 100% whole wheat bread.
Thanks for everyone’s input.

i love natty PB. make sure urs is low sodium (which it shuld be if its natty). when i was seriously bulking i easily went through a jar a week mixing it with shakes and on brown rye toast in the morning. cant get enough of it!

I stay away from natty PB for one reason: it's way too freaking easy to over eat on it. I've never heard of anyone eating too many fish oil caps, but when you're hungry it's real easy to have an extra Tbsp of PB.
If you have the will power, good for you, it's a decent fat source.

^^^ This, 100%.
btw - you said you eat alot for the protein, but it's not a complete source so don't fool yourself. Yes, combining it with a grain such as wheat does provide the missing amino's which then makes it complete, but the fat to protein ratio is insane and absolutely not worth it. You can eat lean protein sources that have 3x as much protein for the same serving size.
Having said that - if it fits within your daily caloric/macro allotment and you have the will power to stop, go for it.

i dont understand why so many people say they eat pb for protein...it has less than half protein to fat...i think even less than oatmeal..
but agree...LOVE IT...would be sad without it
double checked...guess its pretty close...7g per 2tbsp but definately considered a fat source not proteinLast edited by zaggahamma; 04-19-2011 at 02:25 PM.
