Dairy products are a healthful part of any good diet
Dairy products can be a great addition to any diet, but when counting fat or calories, remember to check portion sizes.

An ounce of cheese is a cube about 1-square inch.

Buy a good set of measuring cups to measure liquids and a set of measuring spoons for dry or thick ingredients.

If you're measuring "by the glass," you might be consuming two or three portions at a time without realizing it.
