Did you know that eating cheese can be good for your health and mood? That’s because cheese contains an amino acid called tyrosine, which is involved in the production of neurotransmitters that fight stress and improve mental well-being. An example of cheese rich in tyrosine is Gran Formaggio, from RAR, which is a Grana type cheese with a striking and delicious flavor. RAR CEO Sergio Barbosa tells how Gran Formaggio can help relieve stress. “Basically, the tyrosine in RAR’s Tipo Grana cheese, Gran Formaggio, may play an important role in reducing stress by stimulating the production of essential substances for mental health,” he said.
The CEO also clarifies that the crystals that give a crunchy texture and a special flavor to the cheese are actually tyrosine crystals, which form during the long cure of the product. According to Jiovani Foiatto, industrial manager at RAR, these crystals are signs of high quality cheese. “The presence of tyrosine crystals, in addition to enhancing the taste, also indicates that maturation and conservation were carried out with excellence”, he said.
By tasting Gran Formaggio by RAR, which is rich in tyrosine, we can provide our body with the necessary ingredients for the proper production of these neurotransmitters. Dopamine, for example, is related to pleasure, motivation and the feeling of reward. Maintaining adequate levels of dopamine can improve our mood and lessen the effects of stress.
“Enjoying this delicious cheese in moderation can contribute to a holistic approach to dealing with daily challenges, promoting a better quality of life”, concluded RAR CEO Sergio Barbosa.
