Get What You Need

The 2005 U.S. Dietary Guidelines for Americans is clear; many Americans are not getting the nutrients that they need.

The benefits of consuming at least 5 servings of fruits and vegetables daily are enormous,                                           and with Dominion Ice Cream, it may be easier than you think to achieve.

Americans consume about 1.54 billion gallons of ice cream annually, which averages 22 quarts of ice cream per person.  If each person consumed Dominion vegetable ice cream at only 1/8 cup serving of vegetables per serving of ice cream, at 22 quarts, we would consume an additional 88 cups of vegetables annually.

Yes, we endorse Dominion Ice Cream, but it is important to remember that no single food, diet, dietary supplement, or single isolated nutrient can ever provide the full-spectrum of overall health benefits that we need and desire.
