S4E24: Nutrient Rich: Unveiling the Benefits of Dairy | Amy DeLisio Summary: In this podcast episode of "Seen and Herd," Allison Tristao interviews Amy DeLisio, CEO of the Dairy Council of California, discussing the importance of dairy nutrients. Amy is a registered dietitian and nutritionist with a public health background. She's driven by the lack of healthy food access and nutrition knowledge in underserved communities. The Dairy Council of California, founded by dairy farmers over a century ago, focuses on food access and nutrition education. They collaborate with educators, health professionals, and the dairy community to promote dairy products as part of a healthy diet, highlighting their nutritional benefits. Dairy products contain essential nutrients like essential proteins, calcium, phosphorous, and vitamins, supporting overall wellness, chronic disease prevention, and healthy immune function. Amy introduces the "Dairy Matrix," a combination of essential nutrients and bioactive compounds in dairy products. These compounds contribute to gut health and overall well-being. Dairy is crucial for all life stages, especially pregnancy, early childhood, adolescence, and older adults. It's linked to growth, brain health, immune function, and chronic disease prevention. The Dairy Council's "Let's Eat Healthy Initiative" collaborates with organizations to promote nutrition education and dairy's value. They offer newsletters, resources, awards, and grants for dairy education, encouraging people to join. Amy also discusses the Mobile Dairy Classroom program, bringing live cows to schools to teach children about food sources and dairy production. It has been popular among students and teachers for years. The Dairy Council is celebrating June Dairy Month, including partnerships with the 49ers, PSA campaigns, activation kits, social media efforts, classroom taste-teaching sessions, nutrition webinars, and farmer and processor recognition.
