Every day cottage cheese: features of use, benefit and harm

Consumption of dairy products, including cottage cheese, is approved by many experts.But there is an opposite opinion that a certain number of people share. It is rather difficult to understand all this if there is no high-quality information.

Cottage cheese is highly valued by many people and brings undoubted benefits. It is especially great when the body develops, because at this moment such a product helps cell formation and increase muscle mass. These properties allow us to recommend the use of cottage cheese:

• involved in active sports and physical education;
• pregnant women;
• during lactation;
• in childhood and when recovering from serious illnesses.

The most useful for people low-fat cottage cheese. It should still be remembered that even it contains up to 2% fat. Such a product can be eaten every day for an adult in a volume of up to 0.25 kg. The corresponding portion includes:

• about 30 g of protein, almost 100% of which will be absorbed;
• up to 7 g of carbohydrates, allowing you to get enough energy and get rid of the feeling of hunger;
• up to 4 g of fat, not higher.

The presence of various kinds of microelements is quite large. The same 250 g of fat-free cottage cheese on 1/3 close day need for phosphorus, selenium and sodium. Therefore, the use of the product is associated with the stabilization of the action of the gallbladder, heart and blood vessels, kidneys. The requirements for B vitamins will be closed by 25%. Therefore, a positive effect will also affect the nail, skin, hair and nervous system.

Due to the presence of calcium it is possible to help the development of bone tissue. If the curd is a frequent meal on a plate of adults (especially elderly) people, they are less threatened by osteoporosis. Additionally, it is worth noting that this product contains:

• potassium;
• zinc;
• magnesium.

Quite a few people eat cottage cheese daily because of personal preferences. After all, this is really delicious and emotionally pleasant kind of food. But a natural question arises, how not to harm your own health and get the maximum benefit. This problem is even more relevant for those who wish to eat consciously and systemically. And here the opinion of nutritionists, endocrinologists is absolutely unequivocal: if you want to lose weight, eat cottage cheese in the morning is not useful, but harmful.

And the harm - that is, the risk of getting better instead of losing weight - can affect not only those who eat a lot of white milk dishes. But the use of the same portion of the afternoon affects much more beneficial. Cottage cheese is very rich in protein, and therefore its assimilation requires significant expenditure of energy. It is impossible to accurately assess them, it would require a deep laboratory study of the metabolism of each person individually. But it is absolutely clear that such energy costs are higher than when consuming a comparable mass of fats or carbohydrates.

Casein is the slowest protein that takes a long time to digest. Thanks to him, in the morning the appetite comes back to normal, and therefore it is easier to keep the physiological norm at breakfast. And if you also pre-load yourself in training, then the next day will be devoted to weight loss. In addition, the night will be calmer. Yes, and during wakefulness the substances contained in the curd will reduce the negative emotional phenomena.

This question naturally asks a very large number of people. They know that many products cause negative effects on their own or can cause damage if some pathology is present. But - and this is very good - the answer, rather, will be negative. Cottage cheese itself can only do harm when the body does not tolerate at least one of its components. However, even those suffering from allergies can and should take risks, try very small portions to get around the restriction.

An alternative solution would be to use cottage cheese derived from goat milk. Unlike the usual product, there is no lactose. But this method of avoiding allergic dangers is sometimes too expensive.As for shelf life, it is usually longer than other dairy products.

It happens that the cottage cheese is left warm for a few hours. Do not throw it away - just apply this mass for baking. High-temperature treatment is guaranteed to destroy dangerous microorganisms. Both at purchase, and before preparation it is necessary to estimate a product carefully. Any inclusions and bad smells are categorically unacceptable.

Perfect quality cottage cheese:

• fresh (not only by date of manufacture, but also in appearance);
• It has a pleasant aroma;
• painted white with a slight yellow tint.

Important: food with cottage cheese should be minimized for most people. And the point is not that it is worse or more expensive than a store product. The real danger is increased nutritional value. It poses a particular threat in sedentary lifestyles. But the addition to the curd mass of berries and other plant products brings only benefit and improves the absorption of useful substances.
