World Milk Day

World Milk Day

June 1st is World Milk Day! Yup, all around the world a whole day is dedicated to celebrating the goodness of milk.  Sounds crazy but milk is awesome and a celebration is well deserved.

Why celebrate MILK?

Why not…milk is awesome.  It is full of calcium, phosphorus and other nutrients that help make our teeth and bones stronger as well as ensures the proper function of our muscles and blood vessels and it is enriched with vitamin D. We are proud to say that Canadian milk is some of the best in the world.

What’s so great about Vitala Milk?

Yes, of course we need to mention our Vitala Milk. We think it’s pretty special, not just because it contains all the health benefits as other Canadian milk but because it is local, traceable milk meaning all our milk comes from Vitala Foods partner farms like the EcoDairy in Abbotsford where you can see how the cows are treated and meet them face to face.

Must Drink More Milk!

Here is a terrific infographic (courtesy of SheKnows)that spells out the benefits of milk and presents ideas on how you can incorporate more milk into your diet.
