Abstract:Diary is important for reasonable diet, and had been proved to be closely related to the health status of adults. At present, the nutrition and health status of Chinese residents has been improved, but problems such as irrational dietary structure should not be ignored, in which there is still a large gap between the dairy intake level of Chinese adults and the Dietary Guidelines recommendation. Providing diversified and innovative dairy products and strengthening education on nutritional knowledge are effective means to increase dairy consumption. Based on this, experts from food science, food nutrition, clinical medicine, public health, traditional Chinese medicine and other fields were organized by Chinese Institute of Food Science and Technology to systematically sort out the nutritional problems of the current diet status, clarify the relationship between milk consumption and adult nutrition and health, and form the expert consensus on dairy and adult nutrition and health, which would promote dairy intake level, and contribute to Healthy China Initiative.
