PESHAWAR (Online): If you’re a cheese lover, you will welcome the results of this new study with open arms. Researchers suggest that eating around 40 grams (or 1.41 ounces) of cheese every day could help to reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke.
Researchers suggest that eating a small amount of cheese every day may benefit heart health.
These new findings come from an analysis of 15 observational studies that looked at the effects of cheese intake on the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD).
Study co-author Li-Qiang Qin — who works in the Department of Nutrition and Food Hygiene at Soochow University’s School of Public Health in China — and colleagues report their results in the European Journal of Nutrition.
Cheese is undoubtedly one of our favorite foods. In 2015, the population of the United States consumed the equivalent of 37.1 pounds of cheese per person, with Cheddar and mozzarella being the most popular choices.
While cheese contains some nutrients that are beneficial to health — such as calcium, zinc, and vitamins A and B-12 — it is also high in saturated fats, which can increase cholesterol levels and raise the risk of heart disease and stroke.
The new study, however, suggests that this popular dairy product could have the opposite effect on cardiovascular health.
