The Helthiest Cheese

Not only is soft goat cheese leaner than cow's milk varieties( it has 76 calories per ounce - versus 114 for cheddar)- and 3 fewer grams of fat), it also may provide better protection against anemia and osteoporosis.
Researchers explain that goat's milk products can help our bodies absorb nutrients like iron, calcium, phosphorus, and magnesium more effectively than their cow-derived counterparts.
