To all cheese lovers WELCOME! Today's article will be devoted exclusively to this product. We learn all about health benefits of cheese, let's figure out is cheese possible for weight loss And what kind of cheese is better to give preference. Everyone who is interested in this topic, please take a seat, we will soon begin the review the best cheeses in fitness nutrition and weight loss. And for starters, a little introduction.

Cheese is a favorite product since childhood

We all know from childhood what cheese is: first in kindergarten we ate some porridge for breakfast and always a sandwich with butter and a small piece of cheese; a little later, my mother, sending me to school for the whole day, made the same sandwich with cheese, but it was already larger and also with sausage in addition; well, now we ourselves make all kinds of salads, sandwiches and snacks with this wonderful product. Cheese has always been, is and will be a welcome guest in our refrigerator (at least for those who read this article).

ABOUT health benefits of cheese quite a few articles have been written, and most of them prove the positive effect of this product on the state of the body as a whole. But that's about is cheese possible for weight loss and what is its use in the fight against extra pounds, there are conflicting opinions. And today you will learn the whole truth about cheese and its useful properties oh, and there you can already decide for yourself whether you should use cheese for weight loss, and if so, what kind of cheese is better to choose for this?

Many dietitians and nutritionists limit the intake of cheese in the diet of a person who is losing weight. And it's not easy.

Most types of cheese are quite high in calories and have a high percentage of fat in their composition. But not all. There are also types of cheese that can not only be consumed when losing weight, but it is also recommended to do so. Cheese for weight loss- this is not a prohibited product, if you know how to choose the right cheese and use it in the right amount.

On this infographic, you can see what types of cheeses exist, and by what criteria they are classified.

Criteria for choosing cheese for weight loss

When we talk about balanced diet with an emphasis on weight loss, then here you need to follow some rules when choosing the “right” cheese. Before you include any product, including cheese, in your diet, you need to study its composition, calorie content and make sure that the fat burning process, which is achieved through regular training and nutrition, will not be disturbed and stopped due to improper selected products. Therefore, choosing one or the other type of cheese for weight loss you need to pay attention to:

1. The percentage of fat content of cheese (the number of grams of fat per 100 g);
2. The amount of protein in its composition per 100 g of product;
3. Cheese calories
4. Taste: not spicy, not very salty.

It was not in vain that I put these key points in this order when choosing a cheese.

It is the percentage of fat cheese for weight loss is of the utmost importance. It is better to give preference to low-fat cheeses with a fat content of 9-17% (this is ideal), but you can allow the consumption of 18-25% varieties in small quantities.

The second thing you need to pay attention to is, of course, the amount of protein per 100 g of the product, since cheese is primarily the main source of protein, the building material for your muscles, and they, in turn, also play an important role in losing weight by consuming The "lion's" dose of all the calories eaten.

The next thing to pay attention to is the calorie content of cheese. Try to avoid soft and hard cheeses with high calorie content, this indicates that their fat content is quite high. But even here there are some nuances: it happens that cheese has a high calorie content, but it has other advantages in the fight against excess weight. For example, Camembert cheese with its considerable calorie content (300 kcal) is recommended for people who suffer from lactase deficiency and cannot afford to eat dairy products. This also includes Cheddar and Parmesan cheeses, which are high in calories (402 kcal and 431 kcal respectively), but high in protein (28 g and 38 g per 100 g of product), and by eating them in small quantities, you contribute to nutrition and shaping your muscles.

But now we will move on to considering those types of cheese that are in the “golden mean”: they have both a fairly low calorie content and a high protein content, so their consumption will only positively affect your weight loss process.

The best varieties of cheese for weight loss

Cheese - 160-260 kcal, fat content 20%, proteins - 20 g

This low-calorie cheese is rich in useful trace elements, vitamins, is a storehouse of calcium and a real find for those who follow their figure. It is preferable to use Ricotta from cow's milk, since it contains only 8% fat.

Tofu - 72-90 kcal, fat content up to 5%, proteins - 8 g

Mozzarella - 160-280 kcal, fat content - from 17 to 24%, proteins - 28 g

Mozzarella is one of those types of cheese that are not contraindicated when losing weight. It is rich in phosphorus, calcium, contains enough a large number of easily digestible protein and beneficial fatty acids, which are essential for maintaining balance in the body. Mozzarella goes well with fresh and baked vegetables, herbs, as well as berries and olives.

Feta - 290 kcal, fat content - 24%, proteins - 17 g

Feta cheese is famous cheese, which is used in the preparation of Greek salad, as well as other vegetable salads and snacks. Feta with a fat content of 24% has an average calorie content and is almost devoid of carbohydrates, so it can be safely consumed when losing weight. But the fat content of some types of this cheese reaches 50%, so when choosing cheese while losing weight of this brand, close attention should be paid to the composition and fat content in this product, it should not exceed 24 g.

Brie - 291 kcal, fat content 23%, proteins - 21 g

Brie is a soft cheese from France that is covered in mold and has a creamy, nutty flavor. A small calorie content and a fairly large amount of protein and amino acids make this cheese an approved product for weight loss. Also, this cheese is rich in minerals such as calcium, phosphorus, potassium, etc., which makes it not only tasty, but also very healthy.

Adyghe cheese - 240 kcal, fat content - 14%, proteins - 19 g

Adyghe cheese for weight loss- an indispensable product for all lovers of dairy products. It belongs to the soft varieties of whey cheeses, has a curdled texture and a pleasant milky taste. It is good to use it by adding it to salads, spread it on bread, make various snacks with it, and even combine it with fruits. Adyghe cheese a universal product that will not spoil your figure, while enriching you with phosphorus, calcium, a lot of vitamins and essential amino acids.

Well, we have covered the main types of useful cheese for weight loss. But remember that there is only one cheese for weight loss, even different types, by no means! Most cheeses do not contain carbohydrates at all (especially low-calorie types), and those that do contain their amount is negligible from 0.1 to 1 g per 100 g of product. Therefore, it is FORBIDDEN to arrange cheese diets and limit your diet only to cheese, since you can easily get protein intoxication in the body.

When and how much can you eat cheese?

As I wrote earlier, cheese for weight loss it is better to choose low-calorie and low-fat varieties. The calorie content of cheese should be from 70 kcal to 290 kcal per 100 g of product, and the percentage of fat content should be 9-17% (for thin people who are not prone to gaining excess weight, you can use fatter cheeses). You also need to remember that a strongly pronounced salty or spicy taste of cheese increases appetite and causes fluid retention in the body, so we avoid these types of cheese.

Rules for the consumption of cheese when losing weight:

1. Reception time: breakfast / snack / late dinner
2. Weight in grams per day: 80-100 g (one slice 15-25 g)
3. How many days per week: 2-3.

Why is cheese useful?

What cheese can you eat when losing weight, we found out, now let's take a closer look at the benefits of cheese in fitness nutrition. So, the benefits of cheese:

• A sufficiently high amount of protein allows the muscles to recover faster after a hard workout and “heal” the resulting microcracks in the muscle tissue.

Those who believe that calcium is necessary only for a growing organism are mistaken. And that only children, pregnant and lactating women are the main consumers of dairy products.

After all, calcium is not only a building material for bone and dental tissue. In order to have a slender toned figure, exercising in the gym is not enough - calcium is needed for muscle contraction.

We all want to stay young, energetic, have an impeccable appearance, and for this it is necessary to provide oxygen to every cell of the body. A healthy heart and blood vessels will help with this, but they also need calcium.

The merits of calcium include royal posture and graceful gait. It is vital for our body for the nervous system, for blood coagulation, the synthesis of many substances, hormones, for the normal functioning of the gastrointestinal tract.

Who needs to monitor calcium levels in the first place?

Of course, children, pregnant and lactating women. The health of the child is laid even in the womb, and in the first year of life, the child increases body weight three times and grows by 50%. Imagine how much calcium it would take for us to grow 25 cm.

Calcium levels should also be monitored in people who:

• seizures often occur
• interruptions in the work of the heart, high or low blood pressure (calcium is necessary for the functioning of the cardiovascular system),
• constipation or diarrhea (with calcium deficiency, intestinal contraction is disturbed),
• the level of thyroid hormones is increased (at the same time, calcium is washed out of the bones, the work of all organs and systems is disrupted),
• increased bleeding gums
• peptic ulcer - be especially careful here, in this case elevated the level of calcium increases the secretion of gastric juice and causes an exacerbation of the disease,
• kidney and urinary tract stones (remember, excess calcium is excreted from the body by the kidneys).

The daily requirement for calcium depends on age:

How to avoid calcium deficiency?

Everyone knows that calcium is not formed in the body, and we depend on its intake with food. The main supplier of digestible calcium are milk and dairy products. Therefore, milk, cottage cheese or cottage cheese desserts, yogurt, kefir, sour cream must be present in our diet.

And you don't have to eat tons of them.

For an adult, this is approximately 1 liter of milk per day, or 0.5 kg of cottage cheese, or 150 grams of hard cheese. However, it will be pleasant and correct to eat three dairy products daily, only you need to do this constantly, and not from case to case. And what will these products be? - Choose yourself.

Remember!!!

Three dairy products will allow you to get 80% of the daily value of calcium, the remaining 20% ​​you will need to get from other foods.

For the convenience of determining the amount of calcium in the daily diet, be guided by the data in the table.

Milk - 120mg	Curd -260mg
Yogurt without sugar - 200 mg	Kefir - 120mg
Yogurt with fruits and berries - 136mg	Hard cheese - 600mg
Sour cream -86 mg	Curd desserts -150 mg

Often, pregnant and lactating women complain of tooth enamel destruction, bone pain, although they consume calcium-rich foods daily. Why might this be? Consider how we eat these foods.

You should be aware that fats, sugar, consumption of phosphorus-containing foods, including carbonated drinks rich in phosphates, disrupt the absorption of calcium and lead to its removal from the body.

Foods rich in calcium can be eaten without restriction. Its excess simply will not enter the body and will be excreted with feces.

And now we will learn to independently determine whether we are getting enough calcium. To do this, complete Table 3.

Table 3

Products (in grams)	I day	II day	III day	IV day	5th day	Sum	Multiply and add results in rows
Milk or kefir
Cottage cheese or cottage cheese dessert
Bread, vegetables, fruits, cereals
Total calcium (mg) for 5 days

The result is divided by 5 and we get the average daily intake of calcium.

The result obtained is comparable with the age norms of the need for calcium.

If the result is below normal, try to adjust the power.

We should not forget that dairy products must be of high quality, without artificial fillers and preservatives!

You will learn a lot of new and interesting things about milk and dairy products here:

Group 1: animal protein:

10g of animal protein is 50g of meat or fish, or poultry, or seafood = from 40g (if yellow cheese) to 60g (if white cheese) cheese up to 45% fat = 80g cottage cheese up to 6% fat = 100g cottage cheese casserole = 2 cheesecakes 2 chicken eggs \u003d 3 chicken proteins \u003d 300 ml of milk (milk or kefir, or yogurt, or fermented baked milk, etc.) \u003d 6 non-vegetarian rolls (contain an additional 2 servings of carbohydrates).

Example: 35g of protein per day is 2 eggs + 150g of meat/fish/poultry per day. Or 160g cottage cheese + 150g yogurt + 50g cheese per day.

Group 2 carbohydrates + vegetable proteins:

One serving is 10-15g of carbohydrates = 1 slice of bread (½ slice from a "brick" 0.5 cm thick, weighing 25-30g) = 2 loaves = 2 heaping tablespoons (50g or ½ cup) of ready-made garnish (porridge, rice, puree, beans, corn) = 4 tbsp. heaping (50g or 1 cup) pasta = 1 sized potato egg(approximately 65g of weight) = ½ head of corn = 3 rolls

Example: 5 servings per day is 125g of bread (2.5 full cuts from a brick) per day. Or 5st. spoons of porridge + 5 loaves per day, etc.

50g vegetables = 1 cup unpacked leafy greens.

120g fruits (apples, tangerines, oranges, grapefruits, pomegranates, etc.) = 1/2 cup fresh juice = 1/4 cup dry or canned fruit = 1 cup berries, incl. grapes \u003d 80 g of sweet fruits (persimmon, banana, melon) \u003d 300 g of watermelon.

Vegetable fats: 1 tablespoon vegetable oil(olive + any other in a ratio of 1: 1) \u003d 10 g fat \u003d 6-10 nuts (20 g) \u003d 1 tbsp. a spoonful of seeds (20g) = 15 olives = 10 black olives = 40g avocado

Animal fats: 20g butter\u003d 16 g fat \u003d 100 g 15% sour cream \u003d 50 g 30% sour cream \u003d 2 tbsp. tablespoons dressing/sauce

How much cheese can you eat per day?

Many people love cheese, and since there are a lot of types of cheese, everyone, even the most capricious person, can choose a variety to taste. And cheese is a rare exception to the rule that everything tasty is harmful. The presence of calcium, vitamins A and E, amino acids, fatty acids and phosphorus in cheese makes cheese a truly useful product. For an adult, it will be enough to eat gr. hard cheeses to meet the daily requirement of calcium in the body.

I think as many as you like, unless you're allergic to milk protein. There is nothing in cheese to limit oneself in its use. In the Caucasus, I could eat half a kilogram of fresh cheese at a time and did not experience any problems.

I love cheese and I’m ready to eat it every day in large quantities, the rather big price stops it, with our salaries you can’t accelerate much.

Like all foods, cheese should also be consumed in moderation, since this product is quite high-calorie and contains a lot of fat, so I think that one hundred grams a day will be enough.

And I got the benefit and pleasure and the figure will not greatly affect.

It is useful to eat hard cheese (such as parmesan)

It is good to eat a slice of cheese at night.

promotes better absorption of carbohydrates and

good restful sleep. Cheese boosts

blood pressure is good for

anemia. and in 100 gr. hard cheese 45 kilocalories.

Cheese is a dairy product and therefore healthy, but it is not recommended to eat a lot and it is not recommended, since there is especially a lot of animal fat in cheese and this fat creates cholesterol plaques and thus harms health, therefore it is recommended to eat not a large gram of cheese per day, but if the cheese is hard and salty then a better gram.

Cheese is one of the healthiest food items.

However, there are some restrictions on the number of daily servings, which are primarily caused by its impressive calorie content.

Thus, the most acceptable will be the consumption of about one hundred grams of cheese per day.

If you want and there is no allergy, then how much will fit until you feel sick, and then a little more.

Cheese is very healthy, eat as much as you like. The inhabitants of the mountains eat a lot of cheese, meat and greens and drink everything with good red wine, they live 100 years.

Depends on the quality and type of cheese.

Some manufacturers add palm oil during the preparation of the product. Such cheese, as well as processed cheese, should be discarded.

High-quality hard cheese can be eaten a gram per day and remain confident in its benefits. A larger amount will lead to an overabundance of salt in the body.

Blue cheese can be eaten a little less, a gram per day.

The amount of homemade granular cheese (similar to cottage cheese) can be increased to 200 grams, due to its dietary properties.

Cheese is a valuable food product due to the balance of minerals and the content of amino acids useful for humans.

according to nutritional standards, 20 grams per day, but in general, as much as your heart desires

Cheese is delicious and delicious at the same time. the most useful product, therefore, to use it is very, very late for an organism. However, the calorie content of cheese limits its daily intake to 50 to a maximum of one hundred grams per day.

In fact, cheese is actually a very high-calorie food product, although it is very healthy. I think that in order not to get better, you can eat up to about 50 grams of this milk miracle per day. If you love it so much, then you need to choose low-fat cheese, such as goat's milk.

Cheese - everyone's favorite product sometimes undeservedly moves into the far corner of the refrigerator as extremely fatty and harmful to the figure ... Do you know that cheese is the leader in calcium content! So, 100 grams of hard cheese contains 1300 mg of calcium, which is 130% of the daily requirement. And unlike milk, this product is absorbed by 90%! But cheese is 50% fat – you might say…. So let's figure out what is cheese?

Cheese is made from milk, special lactic bacteria (sourdough) and rennet. Butter is also added to some cheeses. It turns out that cheese is a protein product with a decent fat content. And processed cheeses are very fatty, but more on them later.

Cheese is a fatty product ... or is it not?

As a rule, there are cheeses 60, 50, 45 and 25% fat. Most often on store shelves we see two numbers: 60% and 50%. And it seems to us that these are just crazy numbers, because you don’t want to eat extra fat! And for those who are on a diet, such fats seem sky-high at all. However, do not rush to draw conclusions. Manufacturers indicate the percentage of fat in dry matter, and in the finished product this fat content is reduced to %. And if you try and find cheese, in which the percentage of fat in dry matter is 25%, then this is an extremely dietary product. But even here there are pitfalls!

Are fatty dairy products higher in calcium, or are they not?

If you are told that fatty dairy products are healthier because they have more calcium, this is not entirely true. Calcium and fat are not interconnected, it even happens the other way around, manufacturers reduce the fat content of dairy products, but artificially enrich them with calcium. But don't fall for this trick!

The thing is that calcium is absorbed together with vitamin D. And this very vitamin D is absorbed with fats. Therefore, cheese (a product containing fat) brings so much calcium to our body, and at the same time vitamins A, E, D, B1, B12, essential amino acids and minerals!

The rate of consumption of cheese

And yet, you should not abuse cheese, as well as any other products. A gram of cheese per day is more than enough. And it is better if you eat it separately from bread, and not as you are used to: in combination with sausage and a thick piece of loaf.

So what is the harm of your favorite cheese?

Everything is trite: there is a lot of salt in the cheese. Yes, cheese is extremely salty. It is salt that spoils it, but, unfortunately, this product is not prepared without salt. The only thing you can do is soak the cheese before eating. It is enough to hold it in fresh milk or water for an hour so that some part of the salt comes out. This also applies to other pickled cheeses.

Types of cheese

Cheeses are divided into the following types (fats, proteins and kcal per 100g):

Hard cheeses: parmesan and its types, Swiss, cheddar, maasdam, emmental, gruyère, etc. (fat; proteins - 23-33; kcal:)

Semi-hard cheeses: Russian, Lithuanian, creamy, Dutch, Gouda, etc. (fat - g; proteins; kcal -)

Pickled cheeses: suluguni, brynza, feta, Adyghe, mozzarella, etc. (fats; proteins - 17-25; kcal:)

Soft cheeses: all blue cheeses: camembert, brie, gorgonzola, roquefort, etc. (fats - 30; proteins - 20; kcal -)

Processed Cheeses: Processed cheeses are made from milk, butter, cottage cheese, and any other ingredients. As a rule, these are quite high-calorie cheeses. Their main danger is that in addition to proteins and fat, they often contain carbohydrates (sweet cheeses, or with various additives). That is why processed cheeses are not recommended for overweight people. Processed cheese for a figure is harmful.

Based on the foregoing, we can conclude that the fatter the cheese, the richer in proteins. Hard cheeses are leaders in the content of protein, fat and vitamins!

Cheese can only be loved or hated. However, there are not so many “haters” of the product, if you did not appreciate it, it means that you simply did not find “your” kind of cheese. There are more than 500 species and whole varieties of this product in the world. Almost every country and civilization has given us its own variety of cheese. Greeks - soft feta, French - mature spicy cheeses, Russians - homemade cheese, Bulgarians - cheese. It’s not long to “drown” in such a sea, but it’s definitely worth understanding the properties of cheese, if only because this product can be both very useful, almost healing, and quite harmful, and in some cases, almost toxic.

Useful properties of cheese

First of all, any cheese "inherits" the beneficial properties of the milk from which it is made. A complete amino acid composition, a wealth of "soothing" tryptophan, and some milk fat - this is all about cheese. By the way, you should not be afraid of cheese fats in moderation. Recent studies in the field of nutrition have proven that cheese per day is an acceptable norm even for the most strict diet, because milk fat in small quantities can reduce appetite.

Cheese is rich in minerals - calcium, zinc and phosphorus. This combination allows this product to be considered indispensable in the diet of people who, for some reason, cannot tolerate whole milk, seafood, and fish. That is why cheeses are recommended for vegetarians who consume dairy products. Combined with green vegetables, a serving of cheese provides a satiating effect of these minerals.

Some types of cheese are rich in vitamin A, while others are enriched with B vitamins, and are especially famous for this. goat cheeses. This is what allows most sources to believe that cheese is good for the skin, helps improve vision, and strengthen hair follicles.

A big plus of cheeses is that many of them do not contain lactose, and therefore can be used in the diets of children and adults allergic to this milk protein.

Few people know, but cheese is used not only “for its intended purpose”, but also as a component for numerous homemade beauty recipes. So, there is a nutritious fat cheese mask, grated, mixed with 2-3 yolks, applied for 20 minutes on the skin of the face and neck, then rinsed with plenty of warm water.

Cheese harm

Usually, in connection with harm, they recall the high calorie content of cheese, and, as a result, the risk of gaining extra pounds with excessive enthusiasm for it. This is true only for high-calorie cheeses such as Brie, fatty Camembert, and even the familiar Russian and Poshekhonsky cheeses. If you're looking to lose weight, eat low-fat feta cheese, ricotta, and lighter versions of hard cheeses, trying not to go over your daily calorie limit for cheese, which is closer to calories, or for higher-calorie foods.

Very often, mature cheeses cause indigestion, as they contain types of bacteria that are not typical for our traditional diet. Some "cheese" bacteria can cause listeriosis - a rather dangerous disease. Therefore, exotic cheeses and blue cheeses are a product that should be avoided by people with a sensitive stomach, pregnant women, and nursing mothers. Ripe and spicy cheeses can also aggravate acne, so if you have skin problems, you should refrain from eating them. Sharp and spicy cheeses are also not recommended for diseases of the stomach, gastritis, colitis, and peptic ulcers of various nature.

The connection between the high content of milk fat in some cheeses and increased "bad" cholesterol in the blood is also quite direct. Remember that even if you are not trying to lose weight and do not count calories, eating 200 g of fatty cheese per day is not too much. good idea, if only because it can cause an increase in cholesterol. Fatty cheeses are not recommended for people with liver diseases. And some scientists believe that an “overdose” of the amino acid tryptophan leads to sleep disorders. Therefore, eat cheese in moderation, and sleep peacefully.

Mirtesen

Today, for almost every person, cheese is an integral part of the diet. Cheese is a great snack for every day. But it is worth asking the question, is it good for the body? As it turned out, opinions on this matter differ. Some believe that cheese is simply necessary for a person, others believe that this product does more harm than good for the body.

Studies have shown that cheese is an excellent source of trace elements and beneficial vitamins. Others revealed to us the truth that the product is too high-calorie and fatty, and it should not be eaten. So today we will deal with this issue. And dispel all speculation about cheese.

Cheese dream: useful properties

We will start with the health benefits of cheese. And find out if it is good for the body at all? The main component of all cheeses is protein. As you know, our body needs protein to form new cells. Protein in cheese acquires soluble properties. And thanks to this, it is almost completely absorbed in the body. We can assume that without a trace. There is even more protein in cheese than in meat itself.

Cheese contains phosphorus and calcium. You need to eat only 70 g of cheese per day in order for an adult to receive a daily intake of calcium. The product boasts a high content of vitamins A and B, and it also contains amino acids (lysine, methionine, tryptophan) that a person needs. Cheese is essential in the diet. Be sure to eat it for children, pregnant and lactating women, seedlings. The dairy product well supports the body during a bone fracture.

In addition, cheese is an indispensable source of milk fat. Ask why they are needed? Dairy fats help the digestive system and have a beneficial effect on the body's metabolism. Most of these substances are found in fatty cheeses. They are more delicate in taste.

If you eat a couple of pieces of cheese a couple of hours before bedtime, this will provide you with a sound and healthy sleep. Therefore, you can make yourself a daily snack before bedtime: a couple of pieces of cheese and a glass of kefir.

Cheese is made from milk. Therefore, conclude that it contains all those useful trace elements that are in milk, but only in a concentrated form. 1 liter of milk contains as much vitamin as 100 g of cheese.

Negative sides of cheese

We have already understood that the cheese product is useful. But the world is not divided into black and white. Therefore, even cheese has two sides. It is useful, but on the other hand, it also has its “harmful” sides. So let's look at these options.

Now they sell a lot of sharp and salty varieties of cheese. They negatively affect your stomach. Therefore, it is worth abandoning such a product. This is especially true for people who suffer from stomach ulcers and gastritis. It is not recommended to eat salty and spicy cheese for hypertension.

In addition, cheese is a product of rough processing. And with the constant consumption of such a food product, kidney stones may appear. That doesn't mean you can't eat cheese anymore. Of course not! You need to eat cheese. You just need to limit yourself to some varieties. Eliminate spicy yellow varieties and give preference to curd cheeses.

The healthiest cheese

How many cheeses are on the shelves in the supermarket, just your eyes run wide. And which one is healthy and tasty? Hard question! But we will try to answer anyway. Often near the shelves with cheese we feel “lost”, because you can miscalculate and buy too salty or spicy cheese. Each variety boasts different beneficial properties. Let's get started.

• Suluguni. One of the most popular cheeses. It is usually prepared from pasteurized cow, goat and even buffalo milk. It improves a person's appetite and stimulates the intestines, thereby having a beneficial effect on metabolism. If it is prepared correctly, then it is very useful for a person.
• Adyghe cheese. This type of cheese must be made from sheep's milk. The cheese is pre-ripened in brine when it is exposed to bacteria - the bulgarian stick. This cheese is very fatty, but contains all the useful vitamins for the body. If a person has lactose intolerance, then this cheese should be discarded. It is stored only a month after production. So be careful not to buy an expired product.
• Curd cheeses. This is the safest type of cheese for the body. It can be consumed daily. It does not create discomfort to the body and saturates it with calcium. It can be used during diets and included in baby food.
• Cheese with mold. Cheeses such as Brie and Dor Blue boast their bactericidal properties. They are very helpful for digestion. Brie cheese is matured with penicillin mushrooms in special cellars. And after a long maturation, a white fluffy mold appears on the surface of the cheese. But for the manufacture of Dor Blue, mushroom blue mold is used. Mold improves bowel function and helps in the synthesis of vitamin B. So this cheese is definitely good for humans. Cheese is prepared on the basis of unsterilized milk, so it is not recommended for pregnant women and children. Such cheeses are quite high in calories.
• Parmesan. Delicious Italian cheese. Not a single pasta in Italy could do without this cheese. It can be stored for 10 years proper preparation it has almost no cholesterol. Parmesan is healthy and everyone can eat it without exception.
• Melted cheeses. That's where it's worth asking the question of usefulness. Looking at the packaging with processed cheese, you immediately think how much is stuffed there. If, of course, the cheese was made without chemical and food additives, then its usefulness is worth thinking about. Good processed cheese should be prepared from natural ingredients and contain vitamin B, phosphorus, calcium and casein.
• Feta. Delicious cheese comes straight from Greece. It is made from sheep or goat milk. It contains a large amount of antibiotics that protect your body from food poisoning. Therefore, feta cheese is considered beneficial for the body.

Today we learned that cheese is more beneficial for the body than harmful. There are varieties of cheeses that should be avoided, but most delicious cheeses beneficial to the body and should be included in the daily diet. Almost all varieties have useful properties. Many of them have cholesterol, but parmesan is an exception to the rule. Now we know the answer to the question about the usefulness of cheese. In everything you need to know the measure. Eat no more cheese a day, and that will be enough. We wish you bon appetit and culinary masterpieces with cheese!

It's just that we get calcium not only from cheese and dairy products!

Excess calcium simply does not have time to be excreted from the body if it is supplied with food daily in large quantities. At the same time, it is most often simply deposited on the walls of blood vessels, in the form of stones - in the kidneys, etc. What to do - consume calcium in moderation. You can check the level of calcium - take a blood test

Recommendations for proper nutrition are often vague: the call to eat "more vegetables" and "less sugar" causes confusion for many, because if for one "a lot of sugar" is two teaspoons, then for another - and the syrup is "sour". When planning a diet, you should proceed from your needs and preferences, and as a more specific guideline, you can rely on objective daily and weekly food norms calculated for an adult with an average weight.

Meat: 170 g per day

The daily norm for an adult of average weight and age - 170 g of meat per day - includes both poultry. It is highly desirable that poultry make up half of this norm, in which case the intake of cholesterol into the body will be optimal. The fact that this norm is daily does not mean that you should definitely eat such an amount of meat every day: you can eat it, for example, 4 times a week - 250 g each.

Fish: 300 g per week

Optimal - 3 times a week for 100 g or 2 times a week for 150 g. Since fatty fish (salmon, trout, tuna, mackerel, herring, etc.) contain very useful omega-3 fatty acids, nutritionists It is recommended to include the use of these varieties of fish in the specified rate. Also, all seafood is included in the norm - shrimp, mussels, squid, etc. Try to eat varied!

Vegetables: 300-400 g per day

This rate is at least a day, if you eat more, it will only be for the better. The principle of diversity in relation to vegetables is realized in the fact that it is very desirable to include in the daily diet both cooked (stewed, boiled, fried, in soups) vegetables, and fresh, raw (in salads). Make sure that this norm is not completely blocked by starchy, satisfying vegetables (potatoes, beans, beans, peas).

Fruits: 200-300 g per day

As with vegetables, this is the minimum; it's good if you eat even more fruits. Plus, 200-300 grams is just a big apple, a couple of peaches, or a full cup of berries, which isn't much. When we talk about fruits, we mean fresh fruits, since fruits from jam or compotes no longer have an impressive set of useful properties. But fresh and freshly cooked fruit also counts (peaches in pies, scalded pears in fruit salad, or oven baked apples).

Cereals: 6-8 servings per day

Grain products include all cereals, as well as bread and pasta. It is highly desirable to consume as much as possible (from unprocessed grains). To navigate with portions, it is worth considering that one serving of cereals is half a cup of ready-made porridge or pasta, a slice of bread 50-75 g. That is, a daily norm of 8 servings is a large plate of porridge, pasta (up to 4 cups of a finished dish) or 350-450 g of bread. It will be more beneficial for the body if you consume all types of grains - but little by little: for example, 200 g of bread + a small bowl of porridge.

Bread: 200-250 g per day

Despite the fact that bread belongs to grain products, it should be placed in a separate group, since this is exactly how - separately, as an independent product - people themselves perceive it when they use it. The norm of 200-250 g should include both white and black, and it is highly desirable that there is a place in this list for whole grain bread(with bran). With a balanced diet, the daily norm will look something like this: one small white bun (80-100 g) and 100 g of black grain bread.

Fats: 1-1.3 g/kg per day

The daily norm of fat is 1-1.3 g per kg of your weight per day. That is, if you weigh 80 kg, your norm is 80-90 g of fat. Important: this rate includes all the fat consumed per day, including from ready meals. Therefore, when calculating the amount of fat consumed in its pure form (vegetable oil, butter), you must always keep in mind that this is not the only fat you consumed. You also need to ensure that the daily diet contains both animal and vegetable fat, and the proportion of unsaturated fats (vegetable) is at least 50% of the total.

Sugar: 9 (6) teaspoons per day

The consumption rate is 9 teaspoons (for men) and 6 teaspoons (for women) per day. The norm includes not only visible sugar (what you, for example, put in tea, added when baking a pie, or consumed in the form of a candy), but also hidden sugar from dishes. Sugar is present in the vast majority of dishes (yogurts, pastries, bread, cereals, cottage cheese products, sweets, dried fruits, etc.), so if you are not going to count every grain of sugar in your diet, try to cut your sugar intake by 2- 3 times. By using 2-3 tablespoons of sugar, you will know that you got the rest with ready meals.

Salt: 5 g per day

Daily is 1 teaspoon (5 g). The norm includes both “live” salt in your soup or salad, and hidden salt in marinades, herring, chips, bread, sausage, etc.

Coffee: 300 mg of caffeine per day

The appropriate amount of samo depends on the powder used, on the concentration, strength and type of coffee, but on average 300 mg of caffeine is contained in 300-400 ml of finished moderate-strength coffee brewed from natural powder, or in 500-600 ml of a drink made from instant coffee .

Alcohol: 30 (20 for women) ml of ethanol per day

Speaking of alcohol, we do not mean the “norm”, but the permissible dose of alcohol - the amount that does not cause serious harm to the body. The allowable dose is 20 ml of ethanol per day for women, 30 ml of ethanol per day for men. To calculate the volume of an alcoholic drink, it is enough to know the concentration of ethanol, the strength of the drink. So, if you drink 10% wine, then the allowable dose will be 200 ml (medium glass) of wine for a woman and 300 ml for a man.
