Health Benefits:
Goat cheese, also known as chèvre, provides healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals and is an excellent source of protein.
Although served in small amounts, it provides a decent protein count as well as calcium, vitamin A, and iron. It is a good source of vitamins B2 and B6, copper, and phosphorus as well. It has healthy fats and naturally growing probiotics from its lactic ferments, which aid in producing good bacteria.
Cheese made of goat's milk is also relatively better in being digested compared to that made of cow's milk with its relatively low content of lactose of the same comparison.
Variety and portion control are key elements in a well-balanced diet and 2-3 portions of dairy in a diet may aid in getting optimal health for the support of bones, absorption of minerals, and metabolism.
