Nutrition: the bare minimum
All fluid milk and foods made from milk are part of the daily food group. Dairy is generally high in calcium, vitamin D and protein. Dairy products are very good for the body, but be sure to opt for the low-fat versions of dairy as they can be very high in cholesterol and fat.
Daily recommendation change based on age, gender and activity level, but adult women and men should eat 3 cups of dairy each day.
