How to eat cheese and not get fat
No matter how much we loved the cheese, unfortunately, he's not a very useful figure, as it contains a lot of fat. The question is: do we have to constantly deny myself the pleasure?
Below are 10 practical tips on how and how much you can afford cheese that was not to the detriment of the figure.
1. Pay attention to the calorie content of purchased cheese. In Russia with a reduced calorie cheeses, things are very hard to find them not as easy as in Europe. However, sometimes on the supermarket shelves, there are very interesting suggestions.
2. Try to choose a La carte cheese. Portioned cheese is the salvation for those who can not stop, so to speak violates the measure. Don't forget about the first point — the lower the fat contain cheese, the better.
3. Pay attention to what made your cheese. We live in a time when technology progresses further, regarding the establishment of natural flavors by chemical means. Spend a little time studying the package before you put the cheese in the basket. It is noteworthy that the cheese from where the animals fed with grass, are more enriched in omega-3.
4. RUB cheese whenever possible. Typically, grated cheeses have much less good to season any dish or sandwich, and this is another opportunity to get less calories.
5. Do not waste your daily calorie consumption on the fake cheese. This applies to cheese in tubes, cheese for nachos (nachos are better without it), cream cheese for cheeseburgers, cheese sauce for them and so on.
6. Choose cheese, which naturally contains less fat, but still rich in smell and taste. Your best choice — goat cheese, Parmesan or mozzarella.
7. Learn the difference between hard and soft cheeses. Usually cheese is more healthful than soft, but it contains more fat. Alternate types of cheeses and don't forget the cheese portion.
8. Do not stand next to a cheese plate. Usually we eat more when we are bored or we are nervous. Emotions don't let you get a big dose of calories, choose smaller plates. Or just take less calorie food.
9. Eat cheese after a workout. Cheese is rich in amino acids which help muscle recovery. Nutritionists recommend the ricotta as a snack after the gym, because it contains fewer calories than other cheese (171 calories in a 1/2 Cup).
10. Pay attention to what you eat along with cheese (bread, crackers, etc.). This often contains far more calories than the cheese itself. If you are going to eat a cracker or bread, make sure they are rich in fiber.
11. A great addition for a snack will be fruit or vegetables. Here are a few options: goat's cheese with beetroot, cottage cheese with pineapple, salad of Brussels sprouts with crushed almonds and Parmesan cheese.
