Dietitian in the HealthMarket: Let's Celebrate National Dairy Month!

Date: 6/4/2014
Time:  2:30 PM - 4:30 PM
Type: Foods

June is National Dairy Month, which means it’s time to spread awareness about the health benefits of dairy! Dairy foods are nutrient-dense and provide many essential nutrients, including calcium, potassium, riboflavin, phosphorus, vitamins D, A and B-12 and protein. They provide 72 percent of the calcium in America’s diet. Many research studies show that eating calcium-rich foods such as milk, cheese and yogurt positively affect bone health and may help prevent osteoporosis. We’ve got a Smokey Salmon & Dill Dip recipe made with Greek yogurt for you to try. This is just one way to strive for 3 servings of dairy a day.
