It’s reasonable to assume that many people adore cheese, but there’s a lot of debate regarding whether or not eating cheese on a regular basis is healthy. Sydney Greene MS, RDN, offers advice on which types of cheese are healthier than others, as well as the proper amount proportions to follow, whether you want it cubed, sliced alongside an assortment of meats on a charcuterie board, or melted in a soup bowl with a bag of tortilla chips on hand. Cheese, like any other meal, should not be consumed in excess because it is high in fat and calories. One ounce or one slice of cheese is one serving. There are two varieties of severely processed cheese that come to mind when you think about cheese.

Greene claims that “most American cheese [selections] on the market aren’t even real cheese.” “You may note that American cheese is labeled as a ‘product or cheese food.’ This is because when a [particular] food contains a high number of additives, more than 51 percent of the product, it cannot be called the complete food.”
