                                According to the USDA, a single tablespoon of heavy whipping cream contains approximately 51 calories and over 5 grams of fat. This high-calorie, high-fat profile often leads to the question, 'Is cream healthy for you?'. The answer, however, is more nuanced than a simple yes or no, depending heavily on context, quantity, and individual health goals.
