These 3 seemingly healthy foods may be silently contributing to underlying health issues within your body. Let's dive into why:

1. Peanut Butter 

While peanut butter provides some protein and essential vitamins/minerals, it comes with drawbacks.

Peanuts tend to accumulate aflatoxin, a mold toxin formed during moist storage conditions. Moreover, peanut butter contains inflammatory omega-6 fats, which are often oxidized due to processing.

The excess intake of omega-6 fats, combined with those from vegetable oils, can lead to insulin resistance, heart disease, brain inflammation, and more. Peanut butter also harbors moderate levels of oxalates, plant-based antinutrients linked to kidney stones, thyroid, gut, and joint issues.

2. Spinach

Despite its reputation as a healthful green, spinach has a considerable downside. It ranks among the highest oxalate-containing foods commonly consumed.

A typical bowl of spinach can contain up to 600 mg of oxalates, surpassing the recommended daily limit of 100-200 mg according to oxalate expert Sally Norton.

Excessive oxalate consumption can result in kidney stones, thyroid complications, gut damage, skin problems, and joint pain. Some individuals have even experienced "oxalate poisoning" from overindulging in green smoothies, necessitating emergency medical care.

3. Almonds

Often promoted as a healthy snack, almonds and almond milk also have their drawbacks, including the issues associated with excess omega-6 fats and oxalates mentioned earlier.

While almonds can be part of your diet occasionally, it's wise to avoid consuming them excessively due to these concerns.
