Cheese

Nutritional Analysis

Goat cheese, like goat milk, is easier on the human digestive system and lower in calories, cholesterol and fat than its bovine counterpart. In addition, goat milk cheese is rich in calcium, protein, vitamin A, vitamin K, phosphorus, niacin and thiamin.

According to Epidimiologist Serge Renaud, when comparing the consumption of food and wine in different countries, wine seems to be good for the heart and cheese, (especially goat cheese), does not seem to be implicated as a cause of heart disease. Renaud models his own diet on that of Crete, which has the lowest rate of heart disease in the western world. Cretans eat fish and chicken but no beef. Their diet is heavy in fruits, vegetables, and grains-and they eat goat cheese!

Dr. George Haenlein of the University of Delaware points out that the fats found in goat milk products are significantly higher than cow milk in middle chain fatty acids, which are easier for the body to process.
