Information

In France, the impact of cheese consumption, particularly raw milk cheeses, on human health is currently a subject of debate. Are they providers of essential nutrients and beneficial microorganisms for the microbiota, or a cardiovascular risk factor and a potential source of food poisoning from pathogenic bacteria? The white paper "Health benefits and risks of cheese consumption: interests of microbial biodiversity," developed at the initiative of the Foundation for Cheese Biodiversity and based on the latest scientific data, provides clarity on the matter. Its main conclusions will be presented during this conference.
