The Claim
Daily cheese intake of approximately 23.5 grams in a general adult population with a median age of 44 is not associated with reduced or increased risk of type 2 diabetes, stroke, myocardial infarction, heart failure, or all-cause mortality over a median follow-up period of 3.7 to 7 years, after adjustment for diet quality, physical activity, smoking, and body mass index.
What the research says
Supports is higher
Support is ahead, but a single strong opposing study can change this.
These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.
Eating about 23.5 grams of cheese every day does not change the risk of developing type 2 diabetes, stroke, heart attack, heart failure, or dying from any cause over several years, even when accounting for other lifestyle and health factors.
See the scientific wording
In a general adult population with a median age of 44, daily cheese intake of approximately 23.5 grams is not associated with reduced or increased risk of type 2 diabetes, stroke, myocardial infarction, heart failure, or all-cause mortality over a median follow-up of 3.7 to 7 years, even after adjusting for diet quality, physical activity, smoking, and body mass index.
Eating a small amount of cheese every day does not change how the body manages blood sugar, blood pressure, or inflammation, so it does not increase or decrease the risk of heart disease, stroke, diabetes, or early death.
What the research says
1 studyEating about one slice of cheese a day doesn’t make people more or less likely to get diabetes, heart disease, or die early, even when you account for how healthy their overall lifestyle is.
