~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.

My Kids like White milk but will drink more milk if it's flavored. My son likes strawberry but my daughter loves chocolate. I would much rather them drink more milk so, I allow flavored milk. And did you know?

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.
- 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:
-Enhance muscle glycogen formation
- Promote a hormonal environment that encourages muscle growth
- Promote muscle protein production
- May lessen immune-suppressive effects due of intense exercise
