Margarine linked to Alzheimer's disease

Live healthy and long

From newsmaxhealth by Sylvia Hubbard and Kathleen Walter

Everybody thought that switching to margarine was healthier (from butter) because it contains less fat.  But it is not.  Margarine contains diacetyl.which is linked to  damaging protein in Alzheimer.  Diacetyl is found in microwaved popcorn, candies, and baked goods.

This is according to Dr. Erika Schwartz, a wellness Dr.  The more the chemical is difficult to pronounce, the better to stay away from them.

Alternatives would be butter and olive oil (VCO too?, coconut oil)

Moderation or banning margarine?

Should margarine be banned;  or use this in moderation
