Cheese Benefits: Cheddar Might Be Better for You Than Butter - Business Insider.

Feeney’s study of 164 overweight, middle aged Irish adults, published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition earlier this month, found that participants who incorporated blocks of full-fat Irish cheddar cheese in their diets, while limiting other dairy intake to just two ounces of milk per day, didn’t gain weight.

Instead, participants lowered both their total cholesterol and levels of so-called “bad” LDL cholesterol. They ate a ton of cheese while doing it, too: **120 grams a day, or more than half a standard Irish cheese block**. It’s the kind of cheese block meant to serve an entire household of cheese lovers.

Costco sells good tasting Irish cheddar (Kerrygold Reserve Cheddar, Aged 24 Months).
