Dairy Diet
Feta vs. Danish Feta
Hi, Cheese Fans
The main difference between the above two cheese are that the danish feta has more moisture, thus it is not as sour. Danish Feta usually is made through the modern process of Ultra Filtration, where the whey proteins are retained in the cheese with the casein, giving softer, creamier cheese and much higher yields. Good for you and good for the manufacturer. 😉

Balanced Milk
Hi, Milk Fans
You know why I always say milk is balanced?
Well if you look at the composition of cow and goat milk, you will see that the fat, protein and lactose(carbohydrate) is more balanced than in almost any other food. This helps regulate blood sugar and gives you all-round nourishment throughout the day.

How do you divide calories through the day?
Hi, Dairy Dieters
Most diets tell you to cut calories towards the end of the day. I think this is valid and I understand the reasoning that it helps you not to go to bed with a full stomach. What I have found though is that people that do this are eating too many calories anyway and need to cut back further.
When your calories are low enough you can eat the same amount of calories at every meal. I find that people that cut back at the end of the day, usually are very hungry the next day and this will cut into their reserves too much.
Also keep moderate amounts of fats, protein and carbohydrate in your diet and in all meals as the fat and protein slows down digestion. This means less up and downs in your blood sugar. As long as you are eating less calories than your body needs to maintain weight, you will lose, no matter what you eat.Â

Milk Diet
Hi,
Well I saw this (dairy diet) being searched for on the internet. Milk is one of the most complete foods out there and because it is so high in water(about 87%) it is an excellent diet food, but I do not recommend any diet where the variety is so limited. No single food can supply all the nutrients a healthy body needs.
So for sure include milk in your healthy diet, but by no means make it the only food you consume!
