wants to be a loser
OMG I had to post this after recieving it an email
Having Worked at Unilevers' Premier Margarine Factory in the UK for 1
Year as a Management
Trainee, and then in Sri Lanka Managing Margarine Manufacture, I can
safely admit that what you are about to read is true !!
Pass The Butter... Please.
This is interesting . .. .
Margarine was originally manufactured to fatten turkeys. When it
killed the turkeys, the people who had put all the money into the
research wanted a payback so they put their heads together to
figure out what to do with this product to get their money back.
It was a white substance with no food appeal so they added the
yellow colouring and sold it to people to use in place of butter.
How do you like it? They have come out with some clever new
flavourings....
DO YOU KNOW.. The difference between margarine and butter?
Read on to the end...gets very interesting!
Both have the same amount of calories.
Butter is slightly higher in saturated fats at 8 grams;compared to
5 grams for margarine.
Eating margarinecan increase heart disease in women by 53%over
eating the same amount of butter, according to a recent Harvard
Medical Study.
Eating butterincreases the absorption of many other nutrientsin
other foods.
Butterhas many nutritional benefits where margarinehas a few and
only because they are added!
Butter tastes much better than margarine and it can enhance the
flavours of other foods.
Butterhas been around for centuries where margarinehas been
around for less than 100 years.
And now, for Margarine..
Very High in Trans fatty acids.
Triples risk of coronary heart disease ...
Increases total cholesteroland LDL(this is the bad cholesterol) and
lowers HDL cholesterol, (the good cholesterol)
Increases the risk of cancers up to five times..
Lowers quality of breast milk.
Decreases immune response.
Decreases insulinresponse.
And here's the most disturbing fact.... HERE IS THE PART THAT IS VERY
INTERESTING!
Margarineis but ONE MOLECULEaway from being PLASTIC...
and shares 27 ingredients with PAINT
These facts alone were enough to have me avoiding margarine for
life and anything else that is hydrogenated (this means hydrogen is
added, changing the molecular structure of the substance).
You can try this yourself:
Purchase a tub of margarine and leave it open in your garage or
shaded area. Within a couple of days you will notice a couple of
things:
* no flies, not even those pesky fruit flies will go near it (that
should
tell you something)
* it does not rot or smell differently because it has no nutritional
value ; nothing will grow on it. Even those teeny weeny
microorganisms will not a find a home to grow. Why? Because it
is nearly plastic. Would you melt your Tupperware and spread that
on your toast?
Share This With Your Friends.....(If you want to butter them up')!
Chinese Proverb:
When someone shares something of value with you and you benefit from
it, you have a moral obligation to share it with others.
Pass the BUTTER PLEASE
