Discover what butter can do for your life...and start enjoying it again!

You may have considered butter your enemy. But studies show, butter is much better for your health than it's cousin margarine. Butter actually aids in the absorption of beta-carotene and other vitamin A related nutrients (plus vitamins D, E and K).

Although 50% of butter is saturated fat, not all of these saturated fats have the same effect on blood cholesterol as other saturated fats.

It has been estimated that even if milk fat accounted for all the fat in the diet, the effect on total and LDL cholesterol levels would be small.

Can butter rebuild health and protect against disease?

Butterfat is truly unique. For example, butter has been found to contain an extensive number of micronutrients.

• Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) helps your heart function better by utilizing fatty reserves for energy and reducing weight
• Sphingolipids assists in inhibiting cancer
• Stearic acid lowers saturated fat
• Butyric acid reduces chronic inflammatory conditions that help decrease the risk of colon cancer
• Myristic and lauric acid raise your good choleterol HDL

Another component may have anti-bacterial properties that could protect against gastro-intestinal infection. If you'd like a little more detail, read below.


Did you know CLA can help you lose weight?

The CLA in butter has been shown to:

1. Be an anticarcinogen in several animal models
2. Reduce the adverse catabolic effects induced by immune stimulation in rats, mice and chickens
3. Enhance growth performance in rats and inhibit plaque formation in rabbits fed an atherogenic diet at least
   in part via changes in lipoprotein metabolism
4. Inhibit the body’s mechanism for storing fat and causes the body to utilize fatty reserves for energy
5. Have powerful antioxidant properties.

Have you heard that Stearic acid can lower your cholesterol?

Stearic acid is a saturated fatty acid. Recent research suggests that diets high in stearic acid help lower total blood cholesterol. (Beef fat and cocoa butter contain significant amounts of stearic acid, but they also contain palmitic acid, which raises cholesterol.)

Did you ever imagine this butter ingredient can help prevent cancer?

Sphingolipids are one principal group of lipids in the cell membranes. Found especially in nervous tissue and cell and the BRAIN. They function in cell-cell communication, signal transduction, immunorecognition, and definition of physical state of membranes and lipoproteins. In addition to those functions, current research has link sphingolipids as intracellular Ca (2+) mediators.

Would you like to increase your good cholesteroal with butter?

In animal studies lauric and myristic acids significantly increased HDL (the good cholesterol). Are you beginning to see the great benefits to eating this wonderful food?

How would you like to boost your energy...and MORE with this butter nutrient?

Butyric acid and other short chain fatty acids are taken up by the intestine to be used for energy.

Butyric acid is specifically an important energy source for the cells lining the COLON, where it seems to assist their normal development and maintenance. Butyric acid seems to reduce chronic inflammatory conditions of the colon, and high fecal levels correlate with decreased risk of colon cancer.

Butyric acid works in several other ways as well.

1. It reduces the inflammatory condition of these walls reducing intracellular seepage of undigested food particles.

2. It seals up the holes left by penetration of the roots, i.e. rhizoids, of candida albicans overgrowth, which are often implicated in secondary food sensitivities.

3. It stimulates epithelial sloughing in the intestinal tract. New attachment sites are created for favorable bio-flora such as bifidus and acidophilus cultures.

4. It re-establishes the balance of protective bacteria plus supports our enzyme and fighter cell capabilities, which is necessary for stronger immune support.

In compromised immune systems, undifferentiated cell growth can be inhibited by butyric acid.

Try organic or grass-fed butter

Now that you know butter is beneficial, I'd like to recommend that you buy the best butter available.

Most health food stores carry organic butter. I would suggest trying that rather than ordinary grocery store butter because you won't be getting the antibiotics, hormones and other chemical by-products that can be found in most butters. I realize it's more expensive but your health is worth it.

Another alternative you might want to consider is grass-fed butter from humanely raised cows who eat only natural wholesome grass. Not only does that butter taste better but you are assured that these cows were never fed genetically modified grains, antibiotics, hormones or other chemical additives to their feed.

It's just plain good butter from contented healthy cows. I carry the U.S. Wellness butter at my office or your can purchase it online and have it delivered frozen fresh to you door.
