STILTON'S THE THING FOR CHEESY DREAMS
By Graham Brough
EATING different types of cheese affects the dreams you have,
researchers claim today.
Stilton leads to the oddest, Red Leicester brings on nostalgia, while
Cheshire means no dreams at all.
Around eight in 10 who ate 20g of Stilton before bed had bizarre visions
in their sleep.
A typical one involved a vegetarian crocodile upset because it could not
eat children.
Another was of troops fighting with kittens rather than guns.
Almost seven in 10 who had Cheddar dreamt of celebrities, while Red
Leicester made six in 10 dream of their past.
More than six in 10 on Lancashire cheese had visions of work while half
who had the Cheshire variety dreamt of nothing, the British Cheese Board
study of 200 volunteers found.
Scientists say cheese before bed is good for you, despite the old
wives' tale linking it to nightmares. The Dairy Council's Dr Judith
Bryans said: "One of its amino acids reduces stress and induces sleep."

"The amount of violations of human rights in a country
is always an inverse function of the amount of complaints
about human rights violations heard from there.
The greater the number of complaints being aired,
the better protected are human rights in that country."
