Halloumi is rich in protein and calcium, which promotes basic functions in the human body with the main one being the development of bones and teeth.

Proteins

Proteins are nutrients with a dominant and primary role in life. After all, their name suggests this role. They are an essential element of any living organism. Proteins provide energy, and help your body recover and build stronger muscle tissue.

The human body gets the proteins it needs through the food. To get all the essential amino acids (building blocks of proteins) we need to eat a variety of plant and animal foods, because each food source has a different quality and quantity of amino acids. Depending on their origin, they are divided into plant protein and animal protein.

Calcium

Calcium is one of the most important minerals for the human body. It is essential for the health of bones, teeth, muscles and contributes to normal blood clotting. Vitamin D is essential for its absorption. 

Milk and dairy products like Halloumi cheese and yoghurt are a rich source of calcium. Recommended daily calcium intake is difficult to be achieved without consuming milk and dairy products.
