Last Time We Asked: I think I might be a caseophile. I am having a stressful day, but when I have my first bite of cheese, I feel more relaxed and calm. Am I addicted?
Answer: Although the average person is not ‘addicted’ to cheese, many fromagers deal with it daily. We know that this is not an unhealthy obsession, given the high content of complex proteins, mineral, and vitamins (including Vitamin A and B12) there have been found various amino acids, particularly tryptophan which has been known to reduce stress and calm the mind.
