Gave up the so-called "healthy" peanut butter a LOOONG time ago. An inflammatory, arthrogenic, and potentially carcinogenic legume serve no purpose in my quest for optimal health. Interesting anecdote: About 8 years ago I responded to a 40 year old male in cardiac arrest while out running (I work as a paramedic). We successfully treated him, and he was admitted to ICU. A week later, I transferred him to another hospital; when questioning his diet, he stated peanut butter was "a staple" in his diet---all-natural peanut butter, not partially hydrogenated. he also trained regularly for marathons. His arthrogram showed 80+% blockage in 3 main coronary arteries. Peanut butter? "Genetics"? High carb diet? Hard to say for sure. But I can't see peanut butter being totally innocent.
