Health Benefits of Dairy Foods for Minorities
Conclusion
Rapid changes in the racial and ethnic composition of the U.S. population are creating challenges for health professionals and nutrition educators.

Effective dietary and nutrition education interventions must be culturally appropriate for specific minority groups (72).
