Induction allowed Cheese
You can consume three to four ounces daily of the following full-fat, firm, soft and semisoft aged cheeses*, including:
cheddar
cow, sheep and goat cheese
cream cheese
Gouda
mozzarella
Roquefort and other blue cheeses
Swiss
*All cheeses have some carbohydrate content. The quantity you eat should be governed by that knowledge. The rule of thumb is to count 1 ounce of cheese as equivalent to 1 gram of carbohydrate. Note that cottage cheese, farmer’s cheese and other fresh cheeses are not permitted during Induction. No "diet" cheese, cheese spreads or whey cheeses are permitted. Individuals with known yeast symptoms, dairy allergy or cheese intolerance must avoid cheese.
FYI- read carefully... cheese is not 0 carbs. What it may say is 0 carbs per serving size of 1 oz or 1 slice and that means it can be .9 carbs per serving size. Count each serving size as 1 carb.
Also, processed cheeses like American Cheese are often higher then the cheeses mentioned above so be careful.
