Discover what dairy delivers

Milk, cheese and yogurt provide a unique and powerful package of nine essential nutrients that nourish your body, not just your bones!

In fact, studies show nutrient-rich dairy foods, when consumed as part of a healthy diet, may help to reduce the risk of diseases such as osteoporosis, hypertension, heart disease and type 2 diabetes.

Incomparable nutrition, value and taste

  • Healthy: Enjoying 3 daily servings of low fat or fat-free milk, cheese or yogurt, as recommended by the 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans, improves your overall diet and promotes good health.
  • Safe: Milk and dairy foods undergo a number of safety, quality and sanitation procedures such as pasteurization, making them among the most highly regulated and safest foods available to you and your family.
  • Affordable: Ounce for ounce, dairy is one of the best nutritional values of any food group.  When you're planning your meals to make every dollar count, it’s good to know that you’re getting protein, calcium and other nutrients with every serving of dairy foods.
  • Delicious: The dairy case at your grocery store has something for everyone! Families can choose low fat milk and fat-free milk, cheese or yogurt products to meet everyone’s taste and nutritional needs.
