About One slice of cheese

One slice of cheese is a versatile dairy product enjoyed worldwide in a variety of cuisines. Typically weighing around 20-30 grams, cheese is made from milk and contains essential nutrients such as calcium, protein, and vitamin B12, which support bone health, muscle repair, and energy production. Popular types of cheese, including cheddar, Swiss, or American, can differ in texture, flavor, and nutritional profile. Though cheese is nutrient-dense, it is also high in saturated fat and sodium, which can impact heart health if consumed in excess. Originating from ancient methods of milk preservation, cheese is a staple in dishes ranging from sandwiches to salads and sauces. Moderation is key, as a single slice can complement a balanced diet by adding richness and flavor while contributing to daily nutrient needs.
