Dairy Foods and Demographics: Dairy Foods for All Ages
Infants, adolescents, adults and seniors have specific nutritional needs. Milk serves as a base for functional ingredients that can deliver those nutrients.
Nutritional inadequacies are common among both genders and through all stages of the lifecycle. The majority of Americans simply do not eat a diet that is well-enough balanced to consume a sufficient amount of essential nutrients. Advancements in nutritional sciences during the past 20 years have provided ingredient suppliers and formulators with knowledge to create better-for-you foods that meet the nutritional needs of specific demographics.
Dairy processors are well-positioned to participate in the trend of fortifying foods, because they have a nutrient-rich base (milk) to which they can add vitamins, minerals and other essential nutrients.
