🧈 Is Butter Healthier Than Margarine? Here's What Science Says

When it comes to spreading something on your toast or mixing it into your favorite recipe, the age-old debate resurfaces: Is butter healthier than margarine? The answer isn’t just about taste — it’s about what you’re really feeding your body. Let’s break it down with science.

🧬 Butter vs. Margarine: What’s the Real Difference?

Butter is a natural product made from churning cream. It contains saturated fats, vitamins A, D, E, and K, and no artificial additives.

Margarine, on the other hand, is typically made from vegetable oils that are chemically processed and sometimes hydrogenated — introducing trans fats, which are harmful to heart health.

🌿 Health Benefits of Organic Butter

Organic butter, like the kind we make at Nourishio, goes a step further:

-No hormones or antibiotics in the milk used

-Preservative-free and made with real ingredients

-Rich in Vitamin A for skin and immunity

-Better omega-3 to omega-6 balance compared to processed margarine

-Contains butyrate, a short-chain fatty acid linked to gut health

🔥 The Danger of Margarine: What You Should Know

Many margarine brands contain:

-Hydrogenated oils that may cause inflammation

-Artificial flavors and preservatives

-A high omega-6 content, which may disrupt your body’s balance and increase the risk of chronic diseases
