Cheese is considered a healthy product, but it should be consumed in strictly limited quantities.
Gastroenterologist Evgeny Belousov explained how much cheese you can eat per day without harming your health.

How much cheese can you eat per day
As the gastroenterologist explained, one should eat no more than 30-50 grams of cheese per day.
According to Belousov, this amount allows you to get protein and calcium without putting your body at risk.
Excessive consumption of cheese, the doctor warned, is fraught with weight gain and the development of various diseases.
Eating a lot of cheese is especially dangerous if you have cardiovascular disease or kidney disease.
The healthiest, the expert continued, are hard and semi-hard cheeses, such as Gruyere and Parmesan.
They contain a lot of high-quality protein and calcium, which strengthens bones and teeth.
In addition, hard and semi-hard cheeses are less caloric than soft cheeses.
Which makes them more suitable for regular use, Belousov concluded.
