Study Overview

Dairy products, also known as milk products, refer to food products derived from milk or made from it . Most of the time, these products are made from cow's milk, but other types of milk can also be used, such as raw goat's milk, sheep's milk, camel milk, yak milk, buffalo milk, etc., depending on the situation. There are two product categories. On the one hand, finished products such as liquid milk, cheeses, creams, butters, yoghurts and dairy desserts, which are intended for mass consumption and out-of-home catering (canteens, hotels, etc.). On the other hand, there are intermediate products such as dry ingredients and products derived from milk, like milk powders or proteins, which are destined for the food industry. Dairy products, at the heart of our daily diet, are renowned for their taste and nutritional qualities. The calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, proteins and vitamins they contain are essential for healthy growth, healthy bones and teeth, sports recovery, healthy intestinal flora and reduced cardiovascular risks. The NAF codes concerned are
