Yes, natural peanut butter is good for a snack and the fat helps slow down the sugar rise, if any. My granddaughters have always eaten lots of peanut butter and were successful in gymnastics in their childhood. I have eaten a couple of peanut butter cookies this week without any rising blood sugar in the morning, but I eat them with my main meal, not as a snack. I find i need the high fiber diet even more as I age. I don't drink enough water, I think. Dorisena
