Health Expert Clarifies Differences Between Ghee, Butter

Explaining differences between ghee and butter, Ayurvedic practitioner Dr Aiswarya Santhosh said that ghee is clarified butter made by separating milk solids, fat, water etc. She said while ghee improves memory, digestion, metabolism and immunity, butter improves complexion and strength besides helping in case of coughing and haemorrhoids. She also suggested that ghee can be consumed even by lactose intolerants. However, she advised to avoid ghee made "directly from milk".
