Much saturated fat
Too much saturated fat raises blood cholesterol, that can increase the risk of heart disease.
This fact has been approved by most health organizations in the world.
You have to limit the intake of it by your recommended daily intake.
Ideally, we should eat less than 10% of calories from saturated fat, so the reference value for an average adult is 24 grams daily.
Remember: a 1-ounce slice of regular cheese has nearly 5 grams of saturated fat.

Keep an eye on the cholesterol.
Today cholesterol is no longer a villain. The 2010's USDA guidelines told us to limit cholesterol from foods
Now experts say cholesterol is "not a nutrient of concern" because cholesterol from foods doesn't cause higher blood cholesterol levels.
Nevertheless try to consume no more than 300 milligrams daily.
This product contains more than 13% of your daily cholesterol intake.
If you still are on a low cholesterol diet, please keep in mind:
- nutritionists are not recommending you go out and binge on cheeseburgers and fries.
- 10% of your daily allowance can quickly become 50% when a hamburger turns into double cheeseburger.
-
Want to lower the cholesterol intake? Here are some advices:
- Try to limit your cheese, dairy and meat intake to one item per meal.
- Avoid meals with multiple sources of cholesterol (chicken with cheese, junk food)
- Try to indclude in your diet low- or nonfat dairy, seafood, legumes and nuts.
- Choose water instead of milk for your coffee.

Salty! Has over 20% of the daily sodium max
The average American consumes 5,000 mg of sodium daily — twice the recommended amount amount of 2400mg for healthy adults, this is 1 teaspoon of salt.
For medical reasons many people should not exceed 1500mg of sodium.
Surprisingly, you're responsible for only 15% of the sodium in your diet the bigger part - 75% of the sodium that you consume each day comes from processed foods, not home cooking or the salt shaker.
Excess sodium intake increases the risk of high blood pressure, hypernatremia, hypertension, cardiovascular disease and other heart problems.
Are these reasons enough to cut the sodium intake? No doubt! -
Convert Salt tsps to Sodium mg easily
Salt (NaCl) is not excactly sodium (Na).
It is not right to use these terms as synonyms.
The FDA recommended limit of sodium is 2,300 mg per day (or even less - about 1500 mg while one is on low sodium diets).
This is much less than the weight of salt.
(5,750 mg per day or 3,750 mg for low sodium diet) and not so convenient to calculate.
Know how much sodium is in your salt - without a calculator:
1/4 tsp salt = 600 mg sodium
1/2 tsp salt = 1200 mg sodium
3/4 tsp salt = 1800 mg sodium
1 tsp salt = 2300 mg sodium -
2 tsp of sugars per serving
This volume includes both naturally occurring from ingredients and specially added sugars.
USDA tells us that last years each American consumed an average 130 pounds of caloric sweeteners per year!
That works out to 30 tsp of sugars per day approximately 480 extra calories!
Just to think: Eating just 200 more calories daily than your body requires for body functioning and exercise leads to a 20-pound weight gain in a year. -
Interested in getting more protein?
Protein is important, but some of the protein you find in this product isn't exactly natural.
The protein comes from one of the following sources:
- milk protein concentrate
- whey protein isolate
- soy protein isolate
and that it's not ideal to get protein only from processed goods.
If you're looking for more protein, try beans, quinoa, nuts, seeds, peas and spinach & leafy greens.
Not only do they have protein, they're filled with other vitamins and minerals. -
Learn about veggies and iron
Veggies such as broccoli, bok choy, spinach, parsley and most leafy greens are naturally high in iron.
However, compared to other high-iron foods, like red meat, fish and poultry, the iron in plant foods is not absorbed as easily by the body. What can you do to increase the absorption of iron from these plant foods?
- Vitamin C increases the absorption - so try having a fresh tomato, lemon juice, or an orange together with your high iron food
- Avoid drinking too much coffee - caffeine can decrease the absorption of iron
- In addition to caffeine, the tannins found in tea can also reduce iron absorption
- If you are a vegetarian, try having iron-fortified breakfast cereals, legumes, and eggs
