Bega Foodservice introduces Dairy Farmers Instant Whole Milk Powder
/Newly available from Bega Foodservice, Dairy Farmers Instant Whole Milk Powder has a minimum of 28 per cent fat and good solubility – making it ideal for healthcare and hospital kitchen settings where calorie and protein fortification is integral to providing high quality meals for patients and residents.
It is widely recognised that providing good sources of nutrition for residents in aged care has a significant impact on their health. As the body ages, the requirements for certain nutrients increase – for example protein, calcium and vitamin B2.
“Most people know dairy is a source of calcium and protein which is important for bone health and muscle maintenance respectively, but milk contains many other essential nutrients,” points out Jennifer Arguelles, an Accredited Practising Dietitian and Senior Nutritionist at Bega Foodservice. “These include iodine which can help with brain health, phosphorous which is beneficial for bone maintenance, vitamins B2, B5 and B12 which assist with energy delivery, and potassium which is important for hydration and contributes to muscle function.”
As part of its Foodservice range, Bega Group is proud to offer the extensive selection of high quality, nutritious Dairy Farmers products to foodservice professionals nationwide. With the same levels of protein and milk fat as fresh milk, Dairy Farmers Instant Whole Milk Powder is convenient, versatile and cost effective to use in an array of applications.
Dairy Farmers Instant Whole Milk Powder can be used to fortify full cream milk for use in milkshakes, smoothies and desserts. You can also stir it through cream-based soups, casseroles and sauces.
Dairy Farmers Instant Whole Milk Powder is suitable for vegetarians, certified Halal and Kosher and free from artificial colours, flavours and preservatives. By incorporating Dairy Farmers Instant Whole Milk Powder, you’re delivering high quality, nutrient-rich meals that support the health and wellbeing of your residents.
Proudly Australian owned and made, this versatile new product offers the trusted quality of local dairy, making it a valuable addition to health and aged care kitchens across the country.
