I understand that when eating LCHF you have to get more calories from fat and protein to replace all the calories you no longer get from carbs. Also I've read that low fat versions of dairy products typically contain more carbs. Hence I've been eating full fat cheese instead of light / low fat cheese.
However when I looked in detail at the composition of some of the popular light / low fat cheeses (eg Cath City) they have exactly the same number of carbs/sugars as the full fat versions.
Is there any reason why it is more beneficial to eat 100g of full fat cheese instead of 130g of low fat cheese (or whatever would give the same calories) ?
