Horizon Chocolate Milk and 2 Winners CLOSED

I have two examples that provide you with all you need to know about the Horizon Chocolate Milk.  Easy as that…

1.  It’s gone.  Just a few days in my house and both of the half-gallon containers are gone!

2.  My husband loves it.  He is a picky eater and I basically quit cooking several months ago because he is so picky.  He loves this chocolate milk.  This from a man who will not drink any chocolate milk except the powder mixer that he grew up drinking.  It’s kind of like “Boy Genius, he likes it, he likes it” a la the old Mikey commercial, “Mikey, he likes it, he likes it.”

So, I could leave it there but I won’t because I want to tell you that yes I did receive coupons to purchase the milk with.  But, my kids didn’t know that when they were swigging it down like there was no tomorrow.

And, a few pieces of factual information…

Horizon Organic lowfat Chocolate Milk with DHA Omega-3
provides a great tasting and easy way to add calcium and DHA to your
family¹s diet. DHA Omega-3 is an important nutrient that helps support
heart, brain and eye health, and it¹s available in lowfat half gallons.

DHA belongs to a category of healthy fatty acids known as Omega-3′s. Found
in high concentrations in the tissues of the brain and eye, DHA Omega-3 is
thought to help support healthy function in these areas. DHA has also been
shown to help support heart health.
€ DHA provides a nutritional boost for children’s growing minds and bodies.
Children’s brains grow incredibly fast. In fact, the brain nearly quadruples
in the first five years of life.
€ DHA is a key structural component of the brain, yet many young children
don’t get their recommended daily amount of DHA as it is found in a limited
number of food sources.
Horizon Organic Milk Plus DHA Omega-3 is fortified with a natural, 100
percent vegetarian and sustainable source of DHA – a safe, wholesome,
delicious way to bring more of this important nutrient into your family’s
diet.

Flavored Milk is a Nutrient-Rich Beverage
·      Flavored milk provides the same nine essential nutrients as
unflavored milk (calcium, potassium, phosphorous, protein, vitamins A, D,
B12, Riboflavin and niacin), and can help kids meet their calcium
requirements.
·      Flavored milk consumers did not have higher total fat or calorie
intakes than non milk consumers
Kids Love the Taste of Flavored Milk
·      According to 2005 USDA data, 66% of the milk chosen by children in
schools is flavored.

Chocolate Milk is an Effective Post-Exercise Recovery Beverage
·      A 2006 study showed that low fat milk was as effective at
post-exercise rehydration as sports drinks
·      Because of the natural carb:pro ratio in flavored milks, low fat
chocolate milk is an effective post-exercise recovery beverage.
o   The appropriate carb:pro ratio for improving endurance performance is
about 4:1 However, effective ranges can vary from 2:1 and up to 5:1.
·      Consuming carbohydrate and protein post workout has been shown to:
o   Enhance muscle glycogen formation
o   Promote a hormonal environment that encourages muscle growth
o   Promote muscle protein production
o   May lessen immune-suppressive effects due of intense exercise
