HC Deb 22 June 1995 vol 262 c344W
Mr. Barry Field

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what advice she gives to the public on the importance of milk and cheese to a balanced diet. [29591]

Mr. Sackville

The Department of Health's nutrition task force, in conjunction with the Health Education Authority and the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, published the "National Food Guide, The Balance of Good Health", in July 1994. This shows that milk and dairy foods can make an important contribution to a balanced diet. It advises people to choose lower fat versions whenever they can. Copies of the "National Food Guide" will be placed in the Library.
