Is consuming butter bad for people trying to build muscle?

Consuming butter can have both positive and negative effects on muscle building. Butter is a source of saturated fat, which is important for muscle growth, but it also contains trans fats, which have been linked to inflammation, which can impair muscle growth. Regularly consuming butter may also increase the risk of cardiovascular disease, which can negatively affect muscle growth. To reduce risks, butter should be consumed in moderation and other sources of healthy fats such as olive oil, avocado, nuts and fish should be included in the diet.
