Healthy Milk = Organic Milk

"Is milk healthy?"
"Do kids really need to drink milk?"
"What milk is best for my kids?"

Let’s get down to it – what is the benefit of drinking milk?

Drinking milk has a wide range of benefits for your family’s health. Milk and milk products are especially important for infants and children and can help provide them with the nutrients and vitamins they need to build strong bones and healthy muscles. Parents are constantly wondering what milk to buy for their children and with so many options (organic, skim, lowfat, 2%, grass-fed milk, whole milk, chocolate milk, nut milk, etc.), it can be confusing. Here is what we know for sure:

MILK...

  • calcium
  • potassium
  • vitamin D

Choosing ORGANIC milk and milk products can provide you with even more of the good stuff, and none of the bad stuff!
