The Dairy Diva: Dairy Myths You Have to Read to Believe

You can read all sorts of stuff on the Internet and sometimes it’s hard to tell what is fact and what is fiction. I’ve done a bit of research to put some of that dairy rubbish to rest!

Milk causes acne!

Not true, says the American Academy of Dermatology. In fact, the ADD recommends a balanced, nutrient-rich eating plan to help keep skin healthy. And dairy foods like low-fat or fat-free milk, cheese and yogurt are an important part of a healthy eating plan.

Gluten-free milk?

There is no such thing! Gluten is found in certain grains. Milk doesn’t have gluten – never has and never will. If you need to avoid gluten, Hiland Dairy has many gluten free products that will work for you!

Pasteurization is good for milk.

Absolutely true! While this heating and cooling process does kill off bacteria, it doesn’t impact milk’s taste or nutritional value. Plus, pasteurization has been keeping consumers safe for 150 years.

Diva’s Tips

If you want to know more about dairy, do your own research and get to know the real facts (you can even find more dairy facts on The Hiland Home). After all, knowledge is food for a brilliant mind!
