Cheese affects our nervous system like hard drugs – such a statement appears on the web from time to time. We determine if this is true and what popular sociopolitical movements have to do with it. “Constantly fertilizing” “You can say it’s milk crack” – this is how Neil Barnard, MD, once spoke of cheese, comparing the product with a common “street” drug in the United States . Over the past decade and a half, these words have repeatedly surfaced in the English-language press. They were first featured in an article on a characteristically named Vegetarian Times website in 2009. Author Hillary Dowdle exposed the horrors of animal husbandry, saying cows on dairy farms suffer even more than those on meat farms. The reporter reported that the cows are “constantly impregnated” and separated from the calves, and that due to frequent milking, the animals suffer from mastitis (inflammation of the mammary glands). In short, they are processed “like machines” and ultimately turned into meat. And, of course, according to Dowdle, during their agonizing life, artiodactyls emit massive amounts of methane, contributing to the global warming of cheese,” the author wrote. In the article, this addiction was explained by the presence of casein protein in cheese, which is broken down into casomorphins during digestion, which, according to Barnard’s quote, “bind to opiate receptors in the brain, producing a sedative effect similar to heroin and morphine” Caseins are found in milk, but when cheese is made, their concentration increases dramatically.See the cheese?And it is.Barnard’s words were recalled in 2015, when a study was published on people’s addiction to certain products. The ranking of foods that cause irresistible cravings was compiled based on a survey of 500 Americans. At the top of the list was not cheese, but chocolate , of the ice cream, fries, pizza, cookies, fries, cakes, cheeseburgers, popcorn, muffins, breakfast cereals, marmalade, fried chicken, rolls and sodas. But many English-language media still made headlines about the “astounding” effect of cheese. This dairy product in the study note really finds itself. For example, it is found in pizza and cheeseburger. At the same time, like the rest of the treats on the list, they contain carbohydrates, fats and an abundance of salt. All these substances, entering our body, activate the so-called pleasure center in the brain, and we get a dose of dopamine. However, it was the cheese that the journalists were interested in, and in the context of Dowdle’s article, we can see why. “It’s like taking money out of your card at an ATM and calling it a bank robbery,” wrote neurologist Dean Burnett, noting that the effect of drugs and cheese on the brain is fundamentally different. . The pleasure center of the brain has been shaped by evolution, during which the body has developed a system of checks and balances to combat destructive forms of addiction. The problem with drugs is that they “hack into” this system. Whereas cheese, as a rule, does not harm our health – neither physical nor mental. In addition, it contains useful substances, such as calcium. A number of authors note that there are no studies confirming the effect of cheese casomorphins on the reward center in the human brain. However, that does not stop some. In 2022, New York Mayor and vegan Eric Adams echoed Dowdle-Barnard’s theses by publicly comparing a cheese lover to a heroin addict. His words caused a storm of internet ridicule and heavy criticism from narcologists, so the claim that cheese is like drugs has nothing to do with science. Rather, it is a story about the so-called agenda – a modern civilian opium for the people.

–Cheese affects our nervous system like hard drugs – such a statement appears on the web from time to time. We determine if this is true and what popular sociopolitical movements have to do with it.
“Immerse yourself permanently”
“You could say it’s milk crack,” is how Neil Barnard, MD, once said of the cheese, comparing the product to a common “street” drug in the United States.
The reporter reported that the cows are “constantly impregnated” and separated from the calves, and that due to frequent milking, the animals suffer from mastitis (inflammation of the mammary glands). In short, they are processed “like machines” and ultimately turned into meat. And, of course, according to Dowdle, during their painful lives, artiodactyls emit huge amounts of methane, increasing global warming.
“To lead a healthy, ethical, and environmentally responsible life, I will have to do what I’ve avoided for years – beat my cheese addiction,” the author wrote.
In the article, this addiction was explained by the presence of casein protein in cheese, which breaks down into casomorphins during digestion. The latter, according to Barnard’s quote, “bind to opiate receptors in the brain, producing a sedative effect similar to heroin and morphine.” Caseins are found in milk, but in cheese making their concentration increases significantly.
Do you see cheese? And he is
We find this dairy product in the ranking of the study. For example, it is found in pizza and cheeseburger. At the same time, like the rest of the treats on the list, they contain carbohydrates, fats and an abundance of salt. All these substances, entering our body, activate the so-called pleasure center in the brain, and we get a dose of dopamine. However, it was the cheese that the journalists were interested in – and in the context of Dowdle’s article, one can see why.
The agenda is like opium for the people
He noted that the effect of drugs and cheese on the brain is fundamentally different. The pleasure center of the brain has been shaped by evolution, during which the body has developed a system of checks and balances to combat destructive forms of addiction. The problem with drugs is that they “hack into” this system. Whereas cheese, as a rule, does not harm our health – neither physical nor mental. In addition, it contains useful substances, such as calcium.
So the claim that cheese is like a drug has nothing to do with science. Rather, it is a story about the so-called agenda – a modern civilian opium for the people.
