Protein

Protein’s importance is demonstrated by the fact that it’s found in every cell of the body. It’s responsible for building and maintaining tissues, including muscles. Your body doesn’t store protein, so it needs a continuous daily supply through your diet. Even though cheesecake can’t be a primary source, at least you’ll get complete protein along with the calories and fat. One slice of plain cheesecake without the blueberry topping provides 7 grams of protein. That’s 13 percent of the recommended daily intake for men and 15 percent for women.
