What is the difference in nutritional value between white and yellow cheese?
July 22nd, 2005
The color is one difference in cheese. Most people recognize cheddar, colby orAmerican as yellow and brick or Swiss as white.
Nutritionally, hard cheeses such as Parmesan, cheddar, colby, Swiss, brick and American are good sources of calcium that are equivalent to milk. One and one half ounces of hard cheese is equal to the calcium in one cup of milk.
Cheese can also be substituted for meat at a meal or added to casseroles to increase the protein content. Cheese made from milk contains all the essential amino acids necessary for growth and repair of muscles and internal organs.
One major difference in cheeses, though unrelated to color, is the fat content. Cheeses can vary from three to eight grams of fat per ounce. Low fat cheeses that contain five grams of fat or less include:
baby Swiss
Cheese Whiz
cottage cheese
diet cheeses
farmers
feta
light cream cheese
mozzarella
Neufchatel
parmesan
pot cheese
ricotta
string cheese
Velveeta
The calorie content of the white and yellow cheeses listed above is about the same at 75 calories per one ounce.

How Do You Know if You Are Really Healthy or Not?
Lab tests only look for a very limited number of things. Results can be interpreted different ways and lab results can vary and be inaccurate. Also, there are so many things the lab cannot (or does not) analyze that the picture one gets is static and very much incomplete. Besides, by the time body fluids are so badly altered that lab tests can detect the alteration, much destruction has already happened. Our evaluation procedure is the epitome of early detection. We can detect problems in your biological systems long before they appear in blood or urine analyses and before they are detected by routine medical examination. Our concepts are based on standard practice procedures but we use no lab tests. Our protocol is very accurate, totally objective and, paradoxically, both low tech and highly scientific.
The 7 Simple Signs of Low Nutritional Status
Cavities
If you had a hole in your leg, you’d be alarmed. A hole in your tooth should sound the same alarm bells. No body part is designed to develop holes and when the hardest structure in your body (tooth enamel) turns into a soft, smelly, decayed mass, it’s obvious that something is very wrong. Body systems are not functioning as they should or you wouldn’t have this – or any – of the 7 signs.
Acidic Saliva
Acid states promote disease. Saliva should be neutral or slightly alkaline.
Gum Disease
Gum disease is caused by 2 factors: not keeping your teeth clean and low nutritional status. The first causes the problem and the second worsens it.
Digestive Problems
Gas, diarrhea, indigestion, constipation, the need to take antacids and other signs are all indications that your digestive system is malfunctioning and, obviously, impeding - and substituting for - natural and beneficial processes.
Visual Changes in the Tongue
Cracks, colored coatings, teeth marks, blotches, blue-black spots and other findings are all signs outside the parameters of health and indications that body systems are not functioning as they should. Something is wrong. A tongue should not look like that.
Visual Changes in the Fingernails
Streaks, no lunulae (half moons), lackluster, discolorations, white spots, and improper shape are all signs that body systems are not functioning as they should and some deeper problem is happening. A healthy body forms healthy nails.
Canker Sores (Cold Sores, Fever Blisters)
These sores are blatant signs that your body is at a low nutritional level. Nutritionally strong people never get such sores.
You should not have any of these signs.
The Relevance: 85% of all illnesses and diseases have a major malnutrition component to them.
Nutrition at the doctor-level is vastly different from the dietitian or nutritionist. Our therapy is based on results verified by 14 of the most prestigious research institutions in the world including: UCLA, Houston Medical Center, NIH, Vanderbilt University, Kings College in London, Wake Forest University, University of Sydney in Australia, University of Mississippi, Brigham-Young University, etc.
