Registered Dietitians have been showing us some love lately, thanks to our tasty (yes, actually tasty) 50% and 75% Reduced Fat Cheese, and now because of our new 50% Reduced Fat Omega-3 DHA Cheddar. Cristin Dillon-Jones, a Registered Dietitian who writes for Self Magazine, recently featured Cabot's 50% Reduced Fat Omega-3 DHA Cheddar in an article earlier this week:
"I've experimented a lot with reduced fat cheeses (some taste better than others!). The one I used for this meal is Cabot 50% reduced fat cheddar with omega-3 DHA. It has the same taste but half the fat of regular cheddar. Plus a 1 oz. serving has just 70 calories, 20% DV calcium, and DHA omega-3s." Click here to read more...
What is Omega-3 DHA? Omega-3 DHA is a fatty acid found in the human body; the highest concentrations of DHA are found in the brain, nervous system and the retina of the eye. The more DHA consumed in one's diet, the more DHA is available to support good health in these tissues.
Cabot 50% Reduced Fat Cheddar, produced with Martek Bioscience's life'sDHA (TM), has many benefits:
- It's an all vegetarian-derived and sustainable source of Omega-3 DHA made from algae
- It is not genetically modified
- It has no risk of ocean-borne pollutants
- It is safe and healthy: the Omega-3 DHA we use in our cheese is the same Omega-3 DHA that's used to fortify foods, beverages, dietary supplements and more than 95 % of infant formulas manufactured in the U.S.
