cheese as an EFA?
Can cheese be used as a primary EFA source and a secondary protein source?
Im aware it contains alot of sodium, but it contains less than a gram of carbs and sugars..."a scientist who works out, your like Indiana Jones"..."I AM LIKE INDIANA JONES"

EFA sources are genenally plant derived (if not all plant derived, correct me if I'm wrong). Animal derived fats - though super yummi such as in STEAK! - are hard to digest.

Whats the difference between that and say flax oil or natural pb?
And are there any reasons why someone on a low-carb diet should not eat cheese?"a scientist who works out, your like Indiana Jones"..."I AM LIKE INDIANA JONES"

sorry didnt see that post.
clpgold: what your saying is that because the fats in cheese are animal fats, they wont digest and just get stored as fat?"a scientist who works out, your like Indiana Jones"..."I AM LIKE INDIANA JONES"

Alright, I am correcting myself. All EFA's are NOT plant derived, such as fatty oils from fish.
I'm no expert on EFA's but I would assume the biggest difference between flax and natural pb would be the amounts of saturated fats and omega 3 and 6 fatty acids.A chic on the move.

Again, not exactly sure, even though I've got a great book on all that stuff. Need to read that one day...
I don't think the fats in cheese are considered essential because our body already has it or produces it.A chic on the move.

So is the fat derived from cheese as bad as saturated fat?
