It's so important to stay hydrated! There's lots of drinks out there that claim to be great at hydrating you after your workout.
Studies show that milk keeps you hydrated longer. Your average sport drink keeps you hydrated for about an hour while milk has proven to keep you hydrated for four hours!
The other benefit is that milk helps your body burn fat! 3 servings a day of dairy can double the amount of fat you lose around your middle!
It also helps you maintain your muscle mass which adds up to weight loss. The more muscle you have the more calories you burn!
Milk prevents osteoporosis, hyper tension, colon cancer and lessens tooth decay. If you lose a tooth, putting it in milk will preserve it so your dentist may be able to re implant it.
So for a recovery drink milk is one of your best choices!
