Your pattern of eating includes the foods and drinks you choose each day. Support heart health by filling half your plate with fruits and vegetables, choosing high-fibre foods like whole grains and legumes, and limiting salt and added sugars (aim for 5% DV or less). Don't forget milk!

Missing the sunlight and Vitamin D? Milk is an excellent source of Vitamin D. How do you know if something has a little or a lot of a particular nutrient? Look at nutrition table fact reading with Canada’s Food Guide. More than 15% daily value is a lot, <5% is a little. food-guide.canada.ca...

With the temperatures dropping and snow falling, we often do not think of dehydration as a risk to our daily health. Despite it feeling cold outside, your body still loses water. It is vital to remain hydrated, by making water your drink of choice, alongside drinking dairy products such as milk.

It’s #FunFactFriday! Do cows have upper front teeth?
Cows do not have upper front teeth. Instead, they have something called the dental pad which is a layer of hard gum tissue. This helps them grind the grass they’re eating.
