After 60, Does Peanut Butter Really Help Your Muscles and Blood Sugar?

My grandfather stopped eating peanut butter the moment his doctor said "watch the fat." For years, that jar just sat in his fridge, untouched. Turns out, that might've been the wrong call. In this video, I'm digging into what the research actually says about peanut butter after 60 — not the Instagram version, the real studies. We're talking muscle loss, blood sugar after meals, and whether that old "fat is bad" advice still holds up. Here's what we cover: → Why your body gets worse at protecting muscle after 60 → A 2026 clinical trial on peanut butter and physical function in older adults → What actually happens to blood sugar when you add peanut butter to a meal → The fat and cholesterol myth, and what current heart health guidance really says → How to actually read a peanut butter label (most people get this wrong) Quick note: this isn't medical advice, just an honest look at the research. If you manage diabetes or have other health conditions, talk to your doctor before changing your diet. If this was useful, stick around — more of these videos coming.
