Cheese or No Cheese

Just since I've been keeping a food diary my cheese intake has decreased significantly because of how many calories it packs. I used to love a lot of cheese too, but I keep it to a minimum so I don't blow all my calories and it's really not that hard now.

Back on topic, the fat, calcium and protein in cheese have all been proven to aid weight loss.
There's evidence to suggest dairy causes auto immune diseases, but no proof. The fact that some modern adults are now able to eat dairy without becoming sick is an example of recent evolution in homo sapiens.

Out of curiosity, and not to get involved in the debate, what proof is there that cheese helps you lose weight?

I recall the Dairy Council marketing that made claims that 3 servings of dairy helps you lose weight. However, those ads were pulled, claims redacted, and the Council was sued because those studies were flawed and the Dairy Council funded them. Unfortunately, we all still have that hourglass etched in our brains. Marketing at it's best, I suppose.

If there are other studies, NOT funded by the Dairy Council, please do tell.

Also, I'm not so sure about your information about evolution. It is one of the top allergens and many parts of the world, especially the African-American population, are unable to process milk. If we adapt to utilizing a food source, it does not me we have evolved. Homo Sapiens have not evolved since the dawn of agriculture.
