Tomato and mozzarella pairing, yes or no?
According to some experts, tomato and mozzarella together provide too many minerals to the body and should be consumed together only after physical activity.
According to others, this conflict does not exist [Dr. Giorgio Calabrese].
In any case, cheese should be consumed no more than twice a week, in small doses, and fresh cheeses are preferable.
