The brain region called the hippocampus is the center of learning and memory in the brain, and the brain cells in this region are often the first to be damaged. That's why memory loss is often one of the earliest symptoms of Alzheimer's.
Most cheese contains some amount of iodine, but the exact amount depends on what type of cheese you're eating. An ounce of cheddar cheese, for example, contains 12 micrograms of iodine, which is 8 percent of the amount you need for the day. Mozzarella cheese is a good source of iodine as well, according to HealWithFood.org. Sheep and goat cheese supply iodine, too.
A good example of this is Blue Cheese dressing. By selecting the best quality imported or artisan cheese, you'll end up with a fantastic dressing that has only 1 gram of saturated fat and 7 mg of cholesterol. For more common cheeses I generally use Kraft 2% Milk Extra Sharp Cheddar Cheese. They also make a good reduced-fat Monterey Jack and Swiss cheese. There are other makers of reduced-fat cheeses that range from 5 - 6 grams per ounce. Fresh mozzarella and part-skim mozzarella are also great choices and are low in fat and cholesterol.
