Tal Ha'Emek Reduced Fat 9% Emmental Style

About this product

The wellbeing score for this product is 46%, which falls just below the neutral 50% mark, indicating a slightly negative perceived impact on overall wellbeing for this type of food. In contrast, the safety score is 87%, suggesting a relatively high margin of safety for consumption.

Cow's milk serves as the primary base, contributing protein and calcium while providing the creamy texture expected of a cheese product. Salt enhances the savory flavor profile and acts as a natural preservative, while annatto provides the characteristic yellow-orange hue typical of Emmental-style cheeses.

Salt presents the most notable concern, as its high sodium content is linked to potential health risks with excessive intake. Cow's milk is a common allergen and contains lactose, which may cause digestive discomfort for those with intolerance, though the reduced-fat content may lower overall caloric density.

Overall, this product offers a moderate wellbeing profile with a strong safety record, though its salt and dairy components warrant mindful consumption.
