In the early 2000s, peanut butter was largely seen as a Western concept. Although it was mostly consumed by Indians, there wasn't much of a supply or demand for it in relation to its quantity. You would find mostly imported brands in good grocery stores and that was mostly the extent of it. There was no go-to Indian brand per se and bread was mostly paired with jam or butter. And yes, we are referring to the small tubs of butter that you might now find if you are having breakfast on a train or domestic airplanes.Thus, peanut butter might meet all requirements. But the quantity of carbs is the most important nutrient. The high carbohydrate content per serving aids in producing the glucose needed to raise blood sugar levels and maximize exercise benefits. Indeed, if you eat a meal high in protein and healthy fats 30 to 45 minutes before working out, your body will continue to use that energy even after working out, which will help a little after your workout.
