Healthy Weight

Balancing your food intake means enjoying a wide variety of nutritious foods from across the food groups. While dairy food are well known for their role in bone health, they are not usually the first food group that comes to mind when thinking of losing weight. In fact dairy foods can often be cut out in the mistaken belief that they are fattening. Research shows however, that eating 3 serves of dairy every day will not only help your bones but as part of a calorie controlled eating plan may also help you manage your weight.

For an individualised weight management plan consult an Accredited Practising Dietitian.
