Natural almond butter

Yellow: Limit or adjust

Can fit, but the portion, preparation, or current symptoms may change how natural almond butter feels.

Why it received this rating

Natural almond butter can provide useful unsaturated fat, minerals, or flavor, but it is concentrated and may feel heavy in a large portion while stomach emptying is slowed.

Portion and preparation guidance

Measure a modest portion, about 1 ounce of nuts, 1 tablespoon of seed or nut butter, or 1–2 teaspoons of oil, and pair it with lean protein or produce.

Symptoms or considerations

Reduce the amount if it worsens nausea, reflux, diarrhea, or long-lasting fullness.

Individual tolerance varies. This rating is general educational guidance, not a statement that this food is medically safe or unsafe for you. Follow advice from your prescriber or registered dietitian.
