The TRUTH about this “fatty” treat and your waistline?
Mainstream doctors will blindly tell you it’s going to make you FAT…
Using countless scare tactics and warn you that eating just a sliver of this “fatty” treat is going to pack on the pounds
But finally, there’s science that proves you don’t need to believe the hype around eating this food…
And why it’s not really bad for your waistline!
A lengthy study published in the New England Journal of Medicine, says cheese is essentially NEUTRAL when it comes to your weight.
Researchers looked at over 120,000 people for several decades and identified several foods tied TO weight loss.
These included meats, potatoes, grains, AND… cheese!
In fact, those who regularly ate cheese during the study showed a minimal inverse relationship between body mass and cheese consumption.
In other words, eating cheese in most cases is tied to weight loss!
But there’s more…
The study also found that increased dairy consumption led to increased lean muscle mass and a DECREASE in body fat!
So much for that whole ‘cheese makes you fat’ myth!
Now, this doesn’t mean you should eat a block of cheese the size of a car battery. But it does give you the green light to indulge in some cheese and other dairy products from time to time without fretting about your waistline.
Cheese comes in all shapes and sizes, but generally a serving of cheese is about 1 oz. or about the size of a pair of dice.
A serving of whole milk is 1 cup, or 8 oz. And a serving of whole fat yogurt is also 1 cup. (Most containers of yogurt come in convenient 1 cup containers, which takes out the guesswork.)
So, if you decide to enjoy dairy, stick to the recommended serving size and you should be just fine.
To the truth about dairy,
