Addictive to cheese

Hi everyone! I hope that you all had a nice long weekend. Today I`m going to talk about food. Is true, I always try to care my body eating sane, but I have to accept that I love any foods and I lose control when they`re near to me, I love chocolate, ice cream and cheese…(well, who doesn`t?). I think cheese is delicious, and I heard from many people the same thing. Today I was surfing into the internet and I found an article in the website www.dsc.discovery.com called “Is cheese addictive?” and I was surprised because it explained that is possible feel a borderline addiction for cheese (my case).  In the article said that the effects of pleasure produced at eat cheese could be by a protein that has the milk, called casein, which produces casomorphins. It`s incredible!! So many times feeling guilty for eat cheese like crazy, and now I know that I have a scientific explanation... Anyway, I'm not going to change my habit. Also, all of this research isn’t to say that cheese doesn’t have its benefits, too. The delicious product contains plenty of calcium, a necessity for strong bones and teeth, and is definitely part of a healthy, balanced diet. I know that any excess isn`t good…but, what do you think? Are you addictive to any food? Are you a mouse that loves cheese like me?

See you soon in class :)
