What are the benefits of eating Swiss cheese during pregnancy

Swiss cheese is a name given to a variety of semi-hard and hard cheeses. Irrespective of its type, this cheese is made with pasteurized milk and is rich in nutrients like calcium, proteins and vitamins, making it a good addition to your pregnancy diet. It also has lower lactose levels as compared to other cheeses. Hence, having this cheese can also help prevent tooth decay during pregnancy.
The Conjugated Linoleic Acid and Sphingolipids present in swiss cheese also prevent the development of cancerous cells among expectant mothers. Other health benefits of having swiss cheese include improved bone strength and prevention of high blood pressure.
