On Tuesday, I had the pleasure of joining Jean Ragalie, President, National Dairy Council, and Greg Miller, Executive Vice President for Research, Regulatory and Scientific Affairs for National Dairy Council for a blogger call to discuss the recently released 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans.
Greg kicked off the conversation by describing the major highlights from the 2010 Dietary Guidelines, including changes from the 2005 version. He also discussed dairy innovation as it relates to the creation of dairy foods that are lower in sodium, calories, fats and added sugars.
Next, Jean discussed how the Guidelines will affect schools, youth and children. She discussed how our nation’s children are overweight and undernourished and how Fuel Up to Play 60 and the Gen YOUth Foundation are making a difference in improving the nutrition of America’s children.
