I don't know shit about nutrition and I get to see a nutritionist as part of my insurance. I asked which I should be having margarine or butter and she said margarine.
I thought margarine had transfat, which is bad.
What should I be buying? I live in Australia so an exact product would be great.
You should kill the nutritionist for recommending margerine.
Eat butter.

if you are going to choose between those two, choose butter

butter is shit, theyre both shit. eat vegan butter made from plants. even if ur not vegan its alot healthier and u cant taste the difference
It depends on the margarine you buy. Margarines have higher trans fats, butter have higher saturated fats. Honestly most research about whether either are bad for you is probably crap.
I assume your nutritionist said that because it has lower calories and keeping your calories in check is the most important consideration when it comes to health outcomes by far. But if you can eat butter without going over your limit, then probably pick butter. Unless you think margarine tastes better in which case, just eat margarine.
If you exercise, keep lean and your blood lipid profile is good, your 'higher chances' of heart disease will probably be 0.1%.
Just use oil, OP. Butter or margarine are shit for cooking either way.

No. Trans fat is objectively bad and should be abolished from your diet. Saturated fat is up for debate, but nowhere near as bad as trans fat.

>objectively bad
Lol, almost everything has been associated with worse cardiovascular/atherosclerotic outcomes at some point. I like how you even compare the two "nowhere near as bad" as if we have exact data or anything close to it.
Some trans fats will be the last thing to kill you if you live a generally healthy lifestyle and have a good lipid profile and low inflammation (low CRP etc.). If the latter is shit, then yeah sure, consider lowering intake.

Butter is the best, you retarded nigger.

ok mate eat butter tell me how long you live
When I was a wee lad my mom would cook green beans with butter, if she left the tub of butter unattended I would swoop in like Batman and eat a whole spoonful of butter. I don't know why but I used to love eating butter by itself.

I'd rather die now than be a fruitcake for life eating flamboyant vegan butter.
Your nutritionist is full of shit. Margarine is for poor people who are so stupid they pay extra for fake "butter" that is basically just garbage vegetable oil because the gubment tells them its better for them.

From Wikipedia
"In 2003 the World Health Organisation recommended that trans fats make up no more than 1% of a person's diet.[19] In 2013, the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a preliminary determination that partially hydrogenated oils (which contain trans fats) are not "generally recognized as safe", which was expected to lead to a ban on industrially produced trans fats in the American diet.[2] On 16 June 2015, the FDA finalized its determination that trans fats are not generally recognized as safe, and set a three-year time limit for their removal from all processed foods."
Humans have been eating animal fats (saturated) since the dawn of time. Maybe not the healthiest, definitely better than lab grown frankenfats

Trans fats have absolutely no place in your diet whatsoever. they are demonstrably dangerous at any level of consumption and any nutritionist who reccomends you eat them should be fired, strung up behind a horse and dragged out into the outback.
Butter is just fine.

My mother cooked with butter, bacon fat, and lard ALL the time.
i remember 30 years ago her telling the neighbor lady "they're going to prove one day that lab made margarine shit is dangerous for you mark my words."
And she NEVER bought any of that processed shit in a bag or box. it was either fresh or frozen vegetables, fresh meat, fermented dairy and home made bread.
