  • Not a good source of calcium!
    Cheese is a generally a good source of calcium (more than 10% daily value per serving) - but not the one you just scanned. If you are looking for calcium - swap for something with higher calcium content.By the way, you don't need high fat or calories to get high calcium. Many "lite" versions of cheese provide 30% of daily calcium needs. Choose cheeses that are a naturally good source of calcium. If you're worried about fat and calories, pre-sliced cheese, cheese sticks or cheese squares are a great way to make sure your portion is the right size.The FDA defines a serving of cheese as 1 ounce (30 grams).
  • Learn about rennet, used in cheesemaking
    Rennet is what causes milk to become cheese. It can be derived from animal sources (cow stomach) or vegetable sources (such as thistle). Companies are not legally required to disclose the source of the rennet, so unless the product specifically states a non-animal source for rennet, you won't know.Another way to verify that the rennet is not from an animal source is to look for a kosher symbol. According to Jewish dietary laws, milk and meat ingredients cannot be mixed or eaten at the same time.
  • Cheese lovers rejoice, maybe?
    Denmark is known for its tasty dairy products. Unfortunately butter and cheese are very high in saturated fat. The connection between saturated fats and increased blood cholesterol (leading to heart issues) has been accepted by most health organizations world wide.That's why, when research comes out pointing out the opposite, our ears perk. Especially when the research is by Danish scientists, sponsored by the Danish dairy industry.What did the European scientists discover? That cheese and butter have different effects on our bloods LDL (bad) cholesterol levels. While adding butter to your diet does increase bad cholesterol levels, cheese does not. A group of 50 people were tested over a period of several months, some consuming butter, others cheese. The butter eaters had an increase of 7% in their LDL cholesterol levels.Why would cheese, rich in saturated fat just like butter, have no effect? The researchers hypothesize that it could be the high level of calcium in cheese, as compared to butter. Or maybe the high amount of protein. Or maybe they need to do some more research.In any case, this is one small study, so don't go triple cheese on your next pizza night. Rather, enjoy high quality cheese in small portions.
