Chocolate 1% milk
Nutritional information
DID YOU KNOW?
Hansen’s 1% Chocolate milk has no corn syrup and half the sugar of other brands of chocolate milk. Chocolate milk has been discovered to work just as well as regular sports drinks when consumed after exercise. Sports drinks lack natural protein and carbohydrates that are naturally occurring in milk. And with Vitamins A and D plus calcium provided through milk, it helps in bone strengthening and building muscle. For more information, visit Fuel Up to Play 60.
The unveiling of the 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans brought a strong affirmation for dairy and its vital role in a healthy diet.
Positive outcomes for dairy include:
-
•A “call to action” to increase consumption of low-fat milk and milk products, in addition to fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. The DGA recommend that those ages 9 and older consume three daily servings of low-fat and fat-free milk/milk products.
-
•The recognition that milk is the No. 1 food source for three nutrients — calcium, vitamin D and potassium — of the four nutrients the DGA identified as lacking in the American diet. The fourth is fiber.
-
•The guidelines point out the strong health benefits of dairy: Adequate intake of milk and milk products is linked to improved bone health, especially in children and adolescents, and is associated with a reduced risk of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes, and with lower blood pressure in adults.
-
•Dairy is recognized as an important source of nutrients for those with lactose intolerance; the Guidelines recommend lactose-free milk or smaller amounts of milk to keep dairy in the diet.
