Butter vs!. margarine: Which is better for my heart!?
Answer
Margarine usually tops butter when it comes to heart health!.

Margarine is made from vegetable oils, so it contains no cholesterol!. Margarine is also higher in "good" fats — polyunsaturated and monounsaturated — than butter is!. These types of fat help reduce low-density lipoprotein (LDL), or "bad," cholesterol, when substituted for saturated fat!. Butter, on the other hand, is made from animal fat, so it contains cholesterol and high levels of saturated fat
