Need to Level Up Your Game? You’re Gonna Need Milk For That

 How has milk helped you level up? 

It’s a question asked of college athletes like basketball player Zakai Zeigler and softball player Jaiden Fields.  

Softball player Jaiden turns to milk to help with her hydration status. “Whether it’s diving for line drives or dashing across the outfield, milk hits me with the hydration and nutrition I need most,” says Jaiden. Research shows that milk is one of the best beverages for hydration, even better than water or sports drinks. Reach for milk to help you hydrate and recover, but milk can help athletes and other fitness-focused folks in other ways, too. 

“From the crib to the court, milk has fueled my journey,” says Zakai.  

Zakai is a college basketball player leaving it all on the court each and every game. To do so, he must stay at peak performance all season long. Helping you stay healthy and hydrated, build lean muscle, reach your fitness goals, and recover after a tough workout, milk does it all. With 8 grams of complete protein per serving, milk helps you stay active. Milk’s natural, high-quality protein can’t be matched by most alternatives. Compared to plant proteins, proteins from milk are more complete, higher quality, and less processed. That’s why milk is a great choice for every athlete. Turning to milk is an accessible, tasty way to help Zakai stay on the top of his game. 

And milk can help you level up whatever matters the most. For those seeking ways to bring milk to your next big thing, milk is a versatile food that can be easily introduced to your fitness routine at a low cost. Compared to other sports drinks, milk is a nutritional bargain, providing complete, high-performance protein at approximately 25 cents per 8-ounce glass. Pour real milk into your post-workout smoothie or add a glass to your next meal. For those with lactose intolerance, try lactose-free milk. It’s real milk, just without lactose.  

To level up your game, you’re gonna need milk for that.
