2. Eat plenty of cheese.
Cheese lovers—we have wonderful news for you: snacking on cheese is one of the best ways to increase your protein intake. Just to clear things up, a one-ounce serving of tortilla chips has around 137 calories and, sadly, only 2 grams of protein, while the exact same amount of cheddar packs 117 calories and 7 grams of protein. And you’ll get calcium as well, for that matter.
Doctors recommend people with high cholesterol snack on cheese since it can prevent them from rising. As a general rule, health experts see cheese as a heart-friendly food.
P.S.: Parmesan contains the greatest protein content of all cheeses, followed by Swiss and Pecorino.
