Here are a few reasons why Clover dairy products are a healthy part of your diet:Dairy is a Source of Key Nutrients
Dairy is a concentrated source of of calcium and Vitamin D, both of which are essential dietary components that most people don’t get enough of!
Calcium is the key to making sure you have strong and healthy bones, and is especially important for bone development in children and prevention of Osteoporosis later in life. Vitamin D optimizes your body’s ability to absorb essential nutrients, including calcium. This means that consuming dairy is one of the more efficient and easy ways to get the essential dietary nutrients that your body needs!

Dairy is a Protein Packed Treat
More than anything else, protein is the fuel that makes your body go. It helps to build muscle, and is essential for sports and exercise performance. Thankfully, Clover dairy products are packed full of whey, which is one of the most popular proteins used in protein powders. So why not just go straight to the source?
