DALLAS, July 12, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- In May 2015, Dean Foods Company (NYSE: DF)
transformed the dairy category by introducing DairyPure brand milk,
the country's first national branded fresh white milk. This year,
DairyPure is proud to support MilkPEP's national Milk Life®
campaign that's helping power Team USA's journey to the Olympic and Paralympic
Games.
DairyPure milk – and newly launched DairyPure Lactose Free milk
– provides at least seven essential nutrients, including two B
vitamins, which have been linked to increased energy, and vitamin
A, which has been linked to maintaining a healthy immune
system.* Plus, every eight-ounce glass of DairyPure milk
delivers eight grams of natural protein. With its numerous
nutritive benefits, it's no surprise that a recent survey confirmed
that nine out of 10 U.S. Olympians grew up drinking
milk.**
"Milk is a nutrient powerhouse, and we feel great knowing that
DairyPure milk is building champions and helping fuel Team
USA athletes," said Greg Schwarz, Vice President of Marketing,
Dean Foods. "Backed by our exclusive
Five-Point Purity Promise®, athletes and consumers alike can feel
confident about making DairyPure milk part of their daily
routines."
The only farm-to-fridge milk backed by an exclusive Five-Point
Purity Promise®, DairyPure products contain no artificial growth
hormones,*** are tested for antibiotics, are continually
quality tested to ensure purity, only come from cows fed a healthy
diet and are cold-shipped from your trusted dairy.
Leading up to and during the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, through
MilkPEP's sponsorship, DairyPure white milk bottles will also
proudly display the Milk Life U.S. Olympic logo. And to further
demonstrate DairyPure's commitment to building champions, from now
until August 31, 2016, fans can text
