"That said, the data do not justify eating large amounts of cheese or cream as protective foods against dementia or heart disease. The most consistent message remains that balanced diets, moderation and overall lifestyle matter far more than any single item on the cheese board."

Healthy overall diets and lifestyles, like those found in Asia and around the Mediterranean, seem to be the best.
