A NEW e-book from the National Dairy Council and Food Health Ireland, which tackles key โ€˜Dairy Myths and Misconceptionsโ€™ in a consumer friendly format, has been launched this month as a resource for those interested in food, nutrition and diet.

It covers topics such as allergy, acne, eczema, cancer, fats, sugar, pasteurisation, hormones, antibiotics and animal welfare.

โ€˜Free fromโ€™ is a popular food trend at the moment and many food products are currently marketed with a โ€˜free fromโ€™ label. There is an assumption that exclusion of specific ingredients is synonymous with โ€˜healthyโ€™.

However the National Dairy Council says that because there is a lot of misinformation about allergies, intolerances and other health issues, there was a need for theย new book to clarify the latest scientific information in an accessible format.
