You Tube Video an Educational Piece
Published Wednesday, July 02, 2008 at 04:48 AM
The Animal Agriculture Alliance has launched two new videos on YouTube. The first Alliance video focuses on the importance of moderation and balance in making dietary choices. It suggests talking to a dietitian or nutritionist about a balanced diet and warns against adopting diets based on political causes or trends. The second video points out that over 90% of America's farms and ranches are family-owned. It also explains farmers and ranchers commitment to their animals, their land and their community.

The Alliance's 60-second video on moderation in diet was accepted as part of USDA's MyPyramid Corporate Challenge, an effort to promote healthy, balanced diets and to encourage youth and adults to base their food choices on advice from nutrition experts. Kay Johnson Smith, Executive Vice President of the Animal Agriculture Alliance says - the Alliance is excited to have been selected as a USDA partner in this campaign.
