Made by Max’s Almond Butter: A Delicious Yet Healthy Way to Snack

Trivia: Did you know that the peanut isn’t actually a nut? Yes, it’s a legume! Almonds, however, are real nuts.

Almonds are a great source of unsaturated fat, the kind that can help lower cholesterol levels and decrease heart disease.

Fear of Fat

Eating fat won’t make you fat. That’s already been established in the world of nutrition. In fact, every cell in our body needs fat to assimilate fat-soluble vitamins and protein.

Why Almonds are Great

Almonds can help with weight loss, reducing body fat, and lowering blood pressure and cholesterol. Because of the manganese in almonds, they’re also great for women who need to ease PMS. These nutrient-dense nuts are also a good source of:

calcium
iron
fiber
vitamin E
riboflavin
magnesium
phosphorus

Munching on almonds instead of junk food is a healthy practice. However, to make this habit stick, you have to make it non-boring. This is where Made By Max’s almond butter comes in.

Made By Max: Almond Butter with a Twist

Maxine Qua’s Made By Max offers 3 variants of almond butter. All of these flavors make my tastebuds happy! They’re healthy and vegan-friendly, too. It was love at first bite when I saw Made By Max and tried their almond butter smoothie at Belly-Sima Food Festival in Glorietta.

Extra Dark Cacao: almonds, cacao nibs, coco sugar, touch of salt
