Who
develops your materials? How do I know they are not just pushing
milk?
Dairy Council
of California nutrition education programs are developed by Dairy
Council staff with qualifications in nutrition, research and the
education fields. The programs are field tested to ensure success
and then are reviewed by external nutrition experts and practitioners
to ensure the accuracy and objectivity of the information. The programs
are based on the USDA MyPyramid and do not promote milk
more than any other food group.
