Cheese is healthier than we thought

Say wine, snacks or haute cuisine and the gourmands at online food magazine FavorFlav know where to drink, how to eat it and what to cook. This time our cheffies serve you: Cheese is healthier than we thought.

Look, this is some nice news after Blue Monday. Especially for me as a cheese lover and also for you, if you are one too. New research has been done and what turns out? Cheese is much healthier than we initially thought. PARTY.

New York University recently conducted research on cheese and what it does to your body and health, actually there is only good news.

You don't necessarily gain weight from cheese?!
I found this hard to believe, but according to research, it really is true. Not even from the fattiest types of cheese. Sure, you gain weight because it's food, but not because it's that unhealthy. It also has no effect on getting type 2 diabetes and there are even indications that it can protect you against it. And your cholesterol? Eating cheese would also have no effect on that. Too good to be true sounds almost like it, but Lisa Young, professor at NYU, really says so.

Multiple professors support her. Cheese is said to be full of vitamin K and all those saturated fats aren't that bad, because of the way cheese is made. And no, your cholesterol won't skyrocket from all those fats. At least, not as much as butter would do. But well, if that's your comparison material. Hmmm…
