Milk Makes Splash at Arnold Sports Festival!

For the second straight year, chocolate milk is a hit at the Arnold Expo.

The Arnold Sports Festival is the largest health and fitness exposition in the nation, with over 17,000 athletes and 150,000 fitness fans from around the country.

Research suggests that chocolate milk, with its unique carbohydrate to protein ratio, is an ideal exercise recovery drink compared to most traditional sports drinks. Packed with calcium and other important electrolytes, chocolate milk not only helps build stronger bones, but also helps restore fluids lost during exercise.

“With so many youth athletes and families visiting our booth, the Expo was the perfect place to promote chocolate milk,” said Mike Sieminski, registered dietitian for ADA Mideast. “Not only as an exercise recovery aid, but also as another way to get the recommended three daily servings of milk, cheese or yogurt.”
