Good source of protein

Aids weight loss
Cottage cheese is a great source of conjugated linoleic acid that helps in boosting the metabolism of the body, thus aiding weight loss. Plus paneer lowers the risk of cancer by reducing the amount of bad cholesterol in the body.
Controls blood pressure
It regulates blood pressure as it contains potassium, which helps in lowering blood pressure by controlling the effect that sodium has on your body.
Improves metabolism
Paneer contains high amounts of fibre, which helps in improving the digestive process and helps in feeling full.
Improve bone and teeth health
Paneer is rich in calcium which helps in building stronger teeth and bones. It is even been said to be better than milk when it comes to nutrition.
