Great News!!
Something we've all got in our frig, probably, is actually good for us AND our kids!! Milk!
Milk provides the fuel you need when you are active, and the fluids, nutrients, and protein to help REFUEL after a workout!
There's has been growing interest in milk as a fitness drink, ESPECIALLY after exercise. In fact, research is showing that chocolate milk (low or non-fat preferably) may be just as effective as certain commercial sports drinks in helping athletes refuel muscles after a workout.
Other benefits include:
*reducing exercise-induced muscle damage and may have an advantage when it comes to building muscles after exercise.
*may be a better choice for hydration after exercise compared to certain beverages, replenishing electrolytes and fluids.
Penny-for-penny, no other post-exercise drink contains the full range of vitamins and minerals found in milk.
