In a recent activity to advocate Malaysian families to drink two servings of milk daily, Dutch Lady Malaysia introduced 2-A-Day Milk campaign. Now, we all know that milk is important to children as the nutrients assist them to grow and develop strong healthy bones. It works the same way for adults too!
To educate Malaysian families on its importance, Dutch Lady Malaysia has partnered with Nutrition Society of Malaysia and celebrity Aaron Aziz and his family on the goodness of milk and how easy it is to incorporate two servings in Malaysian families’ daily diet.
A recent survey, by SEANUTS or South East Asian Nutrition Survey reveals most children lacks Vitamin D and out of 20 are undernourished. Vitamin D is important as it assist in absorbing calcium into our body. In severe cases, Vitamin D deficiency can lead to rickets, a disease in which the bone tissue doesn’t properly mineralize, leading to soft bones and skeletal deformities, as explained by Professor Norimah Karim (representative of Nutrition Society of Malaysia). As the newly appointed ambassador of Dutch Lady PureFarm’s 2-a-Day campaign, actor Aaron Aziz and wife Diyana Halik were also present to share their experiences of cultivating the habit of drinking two servings of milk per day in their family’s diet.
In collaboration with the Nutrition Society of Malaysia, Dutch Lady PureFarm’s 2 a Day – Milk campaign will kick start in October 2015 with on-ground roadshows nationwide. Exciting activities awaits families such as nutrition status check, milk tasting and lots more.
