The Surgeon General's report on factors affecting the bone health of our nation states that most Americans don't get enough calcium in the foods they eat. This is a problem that affects both adults and children:

• Low calcium trends are adversely affecting children. Pediatricians report treating more fractures-a sign of poor bone health early in life.
• The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) urges parents to encourage their kids to eat cheese and yogurt or drink milk to improve bone health.
• The dairy case is full of calcium-rich dairy foods that kids and adults enjoy! Foods like Cabot's Very Berry Yogurt or our Mild Cheddar contain several key nutrients, in addition to calcium, known to benefit bones.
