Question

Nuts and Nut Butters

If nuts contain equal parts protien and carbs, why do we need to eat additional carb calories with the nuts/nut butters? I have been eating a snack everyday of celery and 2 tblsp. natural PB. Is this OK?

If you are eating 7.5g carbs for snacks, 2T of pb is sufficient to cover protein and carbs. I need a little more carbs for most of my snacks, so I would add a few raisins like my mom used to make them.
