In the last two decades, an emerging body of research has mounted showing a link between dairy foods like milk, yogurt, and cheese — at a variety of fat levels — and a reduced risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). 

The certification program is based on the sound science of the American Heart Association regarding healthy dietary recommendations, specific product ingredients, and nutrient values. 

Research shows two servings a day of dairy, mainly whole-fat, should be included in a healthy diet along with two to three servings of fruit and vegetables per day.
