June is National Dairy Month!
Wednesday, June  1, 2022
12:15 am - 11:45 pm

Why National Dairy Month is
ImportantDairy is
good for your bonesCalcium is crucial to the growth and
strengthening of bones. A simple glass of milk, some yogurt, or a piece of
cheese helps to fight off brittle bones and osteoporosis.Dairy
reduces blood pressureDiets rich in potassium help
maintain healthy blood pressure. Dairy products — especially yogurt, fluid
milk, and soy milk — provide potassium, and can greatly reduce the risk of
heart disease and strokes.Milk is good
for your teethYour teeth get stronger and
healthier when you drink milk. Calcium helps protect your teeth against gum
disease and keeps your jawbone strong and healthy. In addition, the protein
helps to neutralize acids in the mouth.How to Observe National Dairy MonthHave an ice cream sundae partyInvite some friends over for a summer treat as you add some potassium, calcium, and yes, some sugar, to your diet.Visit a local dairy farmFind out where it all comes from. Go to a nearby dairy farm to learn how the process works from the start.Drink milk to rehydrateStudies
 show that milk is superior to water and sports drinks after a workout. 
Milk is rich in sodium and potassium — both of which help to retain 
fluids and cause your body to sweat less. In addition, milk contains 
protein to help your muscles recover quickly.4 Dairy Delicious Facts About Milk1.Got milk?Milk is the only food that you can
survive on alone. It has every nutrient you need.2.The world
loves milkThe world's population consumes
over 2.1 billion liters every day. That’s enough to fill up 813 Olympic-sized
swimming pools.3.Cows have
friendsDairy cows are social animals. Like
people, they will make friends and bond with some, while avoiding others.4.Cows can
produce a ton of milkA cow turns grass into milk within
two to three days. Depending on the breed, a cow can make between 25 and 40
liters of milk per day.Source:NationalToday.com
