10 a.m. - 11 a.m. Pacific

Health and wellness professionals are on the front lines of fielding questions on food, nutrition and well-being. With our environmental resources and the health of the planet at stake, the discussion now includes ensuring responsibly-produced, nutrient-rich foods are available to meet the needs of our growing global population. As part of the solution to these mounting challenges, the U.S. dairy community is committed to continuous improvement in all areas that make up sustainable food systems – from human health and animal care to stewardship of the land, water and other natural resources – to ensure a better future for the next generation. Join National Dairy Council for a complimentary webinar on the dairy community's ongoing contributions to health and sustainable food systems.

Learning Objectives:
Describe how health and wellness professionals can play a key role in supporting various facets of sustainable food systems
Discuss dairy foods’ unique nutrient profile and emerging science on dairy consumption and reducing risk for prevalent chronic diseases
Explain how dairy foods enhance plant-based diets
Summarize data on dairy’s environmental footprint and how dairy cows are part of the solution to sustainable food systems
