Is peanut butter a good source of protein?
Nutrition experts explain.
Protein is the macronutrient du jour. Discussions about nutrition online as of late are all about making sure you're consuming enough protein every day.
The Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for protein is currently 0.36 grams of protein per pound, according to Harvard Health.
Registered dietitian Jamie Nadeau recommends at least 20 grams of protein per meal, though she notes everyone has different needs.
That doesn't mean you shouldn't eat peanut butter — it just means peanut butter should be part of more balanced meals.
"Those things are going to help you balance it out and not feel like it's easy to overeat," she says.
