Start the new year right with nutrient-packed dairy milk and celebrate National Milk Day Jan. 11th
The Dairy Alliance, a leader in the dairy industry in raising awareness about the nutritional advantages of milk, is encouraging you to raise a glass of milk for your wellness. Celebrate National Milk Day on Thursday, January 11 to observe dairy milk’s strength-building and recovery benefits that fuel peak performance, and the local farmers across the Southeast who fortify the message of this nutritional powerhouse.
“Dairy milk plays a vital role for children and adults across the ages. It boasts a variety of nutritional benefits and supports a strong immune system, which is important during the winter months when colds, flu, and other illnesses are prevalent,” said Geri Berdak, Chief Executive Officer at The Dairy Alliance. “Delicious dairy milk can be enjoyed in a number of ways, and we’re delighted to celebrate and enjoy it on National Milk Day or any occasion.”
According to The Dairy Alliance, National Milk Day commemorates the very first-time dairy milk was delivered to homes inside sterilized glass bottles in 1878 and how accessible it has become thanks to that step.
At just about 25 cents per 8-ounce glass, no other beverage packs the nutritional power of dairy milk’s 8 grams of high-quality protein and 13 essential nutrients for the dollar. Research shows that milk and milk products are the least expensive dietary sources of vitamin D in the American diet, making it a popular choice amongst consumers.
Dairy milk is packed with vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients important for your health, including key nutrients like high-quality protein, vitamin A, vitamin D, zinc, and selenium that support a healthy immune system.
