Cottage cheese is considered a healthy product, the consumption of which is recommended to improve health.

But it is very important that the quality of this dairy product is at the proper level, and special attention should be paid to the composition.

Particular attention should be paid to the percentage of protein, lactic acid bacteria and yeast.

Unfortunately, some unscrupulous manufacturers even allow the presence of antibiotics – the norm for this component is exceeded.

What else should you pay attention to?

It is important that the cottage cheese does not contain soy or vegetable fats, and that the mass fraction of fatty acids is normal.

For the cottage cheese producer, high-quality and pasteurized milk must be used.

It should be noted that the presence of mold and yeast in products is not always the fault of the manufacturer.

Most often, the reason for this is non-compliance with the temperature regime during storage.
