Here are some factors to consider when choosing a healthy peanut butter brand.Look for peanut butter brands with minimal ingredients. The healthiest options typically contain just peanuts and maybe a touch of salt. Avoid products with added sugars, hydrogenated oils or artificial additives.It is especially important to read the labels if you are following any specific type of diet, like a clean keto diet or a gluten-free diet. Sometimes brands add ingredients that you wouldn’t typically think you’d find in peanut butter.&nbsp;Check the nutrition label for protein, fiber and healthy fats. Healthier peanut butter options tend to have higher protein and fiber content, which can help keep you feeling full and satisfied.Many commercial peanut butter brands add sugar to their products to make them taste better. This can potentially contribute to weight gain. Opt for brands with no added sugar.Avoid peanut butter brands that contain hydrogenated oils, as they contain trans fats, which we know are not good for us.&nbsp;Some peanut butter brands add excessive salt. Choose options with lower sodium levels or no added salt if you’re watching your salt intake.If you prefer organic and non-GMO products, look for peanut butter brands that carry these certifications.Select peanut butter brands without emulsifiers, as they can have long-term health implications. These most likely will be in the form of gums or partially hydrogenated oils. “Emulsifiers can generate inflammation to the gut’s fragile and important lining,” says dietitian Dahlia Marin.&nbsp;&nbsp;You can always make your own homemade peanut butter by roasting raw peanuts and grinding them yourself, but that takes time.
