Economy 52,951 Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 http://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/the-running-blog/2014/jul/09/secret-powers-chocolate-milk-mo-farah-runnershttp://blogs.webmd.com/healthy-recipe-doctor/2011/08/chocolate-milk-vs-recovery-drinks-which-one-comes-out-on-top.html More studies have been done and it only reinforced what was already known. The best thing to have as a recovery drink after workouts is not any of the powders on the market but is still chocolate milk. It contains the perfect 3:1 carbohydrate to protein ratio. The carbs provide your body with quick energy so that your body does not misuse protein for energy which it may do if it detects a deficit in calories. Carbs also enhance glycogen replenishment. The carbs from the chocolat add additional benefits in this front to just regular plain milk The proteins are also the perfect balance. It contains 20% whey protein which is perfect to absorb quickly. Your body can use those proteins immediately to begin repairing teared muscle tissue which has a short window. After about 1 hour if no protein makes it to muscles, they break down instead and the workout is counter-productive The remaining 80% is caisin protein which absorbs more slowly... it provides gradual absorbtion of protein into your body as the later stages of repairing muscle tissue require slow but constant inflows of amino acids Then milk also contains vitamins and minerals that also provide direct and indirect support in some way shape or form to muscle building In response to these findings companies to sell products have tried to mimic milk composition but still not as good as the real thing. Bottom line, a cup of chocolat milk not only tastes better, its much cheaper and works better than protein powders! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Economy 52,951 Posted May 12, 2015 Author Share Posted May 12, 2015 not sure about this I love to drink protein shake with chocolate flavor after workout theres science to prove it study after study proves the same thing! anyway they never said protein shakes dont work. You can keep using them if you like. They are merely saying theres no substitute what some people dont understand is muscle building isnt just about the amount of protein ur putting in. Theres different types of proteins (some are digested faster than others). and different carbs and nutrients play a part in muscle buildings as well They are simply pointing out that chocolat milk has just about the best possible combination and proportion of each nutrient so its difficult for any shake to be AS good.
