At first glance, it seems that uncontrolled consumption of cheese does not harm the body in any way.

However, there are a number of nuances in this matter that are worth paying attention to.

Head of the gastroenterology department of the Moscow Regional Hospital named after V.N. Rozanov Maria Kolesnikova told what is important for cheese lovers to remember.

In a conversation with Vechernyaya Moskva , the expert noted: “Cheese contains a substance that, under the influence of intestinal enzymes, turns into casomorphin.”

According to the doctor, casomorphin is similar in its action to morphine.
