Cheese is often criticized for being higher in saturated fat and sodium, but cheese is delicious, filling, and nutritious. Providing a slew of nutrients you need to feel fuller, longer and provides essential minerals you need for overall health.
Mozzarella Cheese
Mozzarella is softer and less-aged, which means it contains less salt. It’s also a nutrient-packed cheese that serves as a great source of bone-building mineral and provides up to eight grams of protein per 1 ounce serving.
Swiss Cheese
Swiss is a good option if you are looking for a cheese that is lower in fat and sodium. Swiss is also higher in Vitamin B12 than other cheeses, which is essential for overall cell, muscle, and nerve function. You’ll still get about 20% of your daily value for calcium!
Parmesan Cheese
Parmesan is packed with nutrients, especially calcium and phosphorus; both are important for bone health. Parmesan cheese tends to be lower in fat and higher in protein but is also higher in sodium.
Bleu Cheese
Bleu cheese tends to be higher in sodium, but it provides more calcium, which is essential for optimal bone health.
