Recommendations to the California Dairy Industry

Department of Food Science and Technology, University of California, Davis 95616

ABSTRACT

Participants in the workshop, "Positioning the Dairy Industry to Meet Nutrition Issues of the ‘80’s", reached consensus on seven recommendations for managing nutrition issues.

1. Dairy organizations should continue to raise consciousness of the consumer for good nutrition. Rationale: The industry has a long history of supporting programs that educate consumers regarding good nutrition. Such programs should be continued.
   
2. The dairy industry should continue to express support for making food choices using a system that includes the four food groups in working with professionals who make dietary recommendations. Rationale: No single food supplies all the essential nutrients in the amounts needed. One way to assure variety and, with it, a well-balanced diet is to select foods each day to include several servings from each of the four basic food groups.
   
3. Dairy organizations should continue development of programs to improve public understanding of fat and other nutrients in milk and dairy foods.
