Chocolate milk came on the scene a few years ago as a potential workout recovery drink. Chronic studies continue to indicate it helps promote muscle protein synthesis (growth). Further research also shows chocolate milk improves athletic performance, maintains cellular balance, and keeps the body hydrated.
Bodybuilders who choose chocolate milk as their post workout recovery drink may have an advantage on their competitors. After demanding workouts, your body craves certain nutrients for energy replacement and muscular recovery. Chocolate milk provides these fast carbohydrates and protein to refuel the body for upcoming workouts.A metered intake of milk following exercise and thermal dehydration restores whole-body net fluid balance better than a carbohydrate–electrolyte solution or water in healthy young men.
British Journal of Nutrition. 2016; 1-9.Drinking Chocolate Milk May Help Your Workout. Study Shows Low-Fat Chocolate Milk May Boost Endurance, Build Muscle.Even if you’re a weightlifter, chocolate milk as a post-workout drink has been shown to help people grow stronger.
Multiple studies showed that drinking milk led.I know its probably more convenient to drink something as a “pre workout meal” but you should just stick to eating whole foods. Drinking chocolate milk before a workout will do little to nothing for you. Its just like asking “is it a good idea to drink gatorade before a workout”. If you’re really keen on convenience, make a protein shake instead: 1) milk.
Ivy found that you can build more muscle and lose fat during training if you drink chocolate milk after a workout. His research found that people.A glass of milk contains all 8 of the essential amino acids needed for growth, recovery, and repair following an intense workout. There was even a recent uproar online after a study examined chocolate milk and found it to be more beneficial than protein powders post workout (1).
We’ll come back to that later, as it’s far from the truth.Still, for parents who want to encourage milk-drinking, chocolate milk can seem like a good solution. It provides the same amounts of protein and calcium as white milk in a flavor that kids find irresistible.
Add a spoonful (or two) of Nutella to your chocolate milk to make it extra chocolatey, but make sure you use a whisk to make sure there aren’t any huge Nutella globs. This might be my favorite So far.Chocolate milk is rich in calcium — the main mineral present in your bones. Dairy is the biggest source of dietary calcium in the United States and Canada —.
After an exhausting workout, the body needs to replenish these stores as quickly as possible, and the more we can get the better, which is the reason why chocolate milk is.chocolate ice cream, chocolate fudge sauce, chocolate milk, maraschino cherries and 3 more Candy Cane Infused Vodka Chocolate Martini Simply Made Recipes candy cane, creme de cacao, chocolate milk, chocolate syrup, candy canes.Post-exercise muscle biopsies showed increased skeletal muscle protein synthesis a sign that muscles were better able to rebuild after the milk drink, compared with the carb-only beverage.Chocolate milk will for sure be your best option after a training session if you don’t have protein powder anymore.
Chocolate milk has both casein proteins and whey. The extra sugar in chocolate milk will provide you with more carbohydrates which give more calories that are great for muscle building and also carbohydrates to boost recovery.

Look at lactose free Fairlife Chocolate milk……. double the protein of regular milk
As the speaker points out, this is not a vegan diet she is promoting. However, to get the benefits of seafood without the drawbacks, a DHA supplement made from algae and a B12 supplement is an option. Other sources of Omega-3 include ground flax seeds, walnuts, chia and hemp seeds. The reason fish contain Omega-3 is that they eat algae, or other fish that do so. I go to the source, and skip the fish.
Bullshit Dave! Nothin wrong with Choc Milk post workout…sugar and milk is all good. Enuf of your science mumbo jumbo! Lol
Eat alkaline ash foods.
This video is an ok start to cleaning up your diet.
Dairy is amazing… for turning a baby calf into a cow. That’s all it’s good for. Why are humans the only animal that consumes milk after we have weaned… another animals milk?
MILK does not cause acne cancer and body fat
Masturbation does sugar does flouride does and lack of a stable mind does
people are stupid. just go and buy cocoa and eat 50 grams (111.5 calories) and make all KINDZ OF GAINZZZZ
Every Race needs to eat and drink as per body uniqueness. We all have oposing acidic liquids for digestion.
Unfortunately I cannot consume dairy. I do have whey protein but it’s a an expensive raw kind that has everything removed excepted the raw whey protein so I can drink it whereas I cannot drink other kinds of whey protein because they are not as pure.. I DEFINITELY notice a difference when I use whey and when I don’t. Gains are much better with a whey protein shake twice a day.
Stop fussing about GMO’s!!! I won’t listen to a word she says!!!
It annoys me so much that so many folk avoid buying whole for some shit like skimmed milk or low fat milk even though whole fat milk isn’t any less healthy than them. Possibly healthier or it changes our behaviour to make healthier choices. They’re drinking a lower tasting quality for no reason.��♂️
I think she’s missing the point here. According to the book The Mindspan Diet by Preston Estep, a distinguished gerontologist at Harvard Medical School, we already know that at least 70% of dementia and other CNS diseases is caused by an excess of heme iron in the diet as we age. Heme iron is found in meat, fish, supplements and fortified foods, and Dr Estep writes that there is a strong consensus in the research community that we are ingesting far too much. In communities such as the Blue Zones where dementia is much rarer, people eat a low iron diet and are borderline anaemic by standard measures. I’m a very cynical and critical reader, but the evidence Estep presents is overwhelming and I’ve made major changes to my lifestyle based on his advice.
DAVE DONT GET STINKY HURT OVER CHOC MILK BEING WAYYYYYY BETTER THAN YOUR RIP OFF PROTIEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I most often have swelled befor I knew what I ate:( bummer just did it again.
This was by far the best explanation of what’s going on with glucose in the body
Not clapping for the wine. �� Yes on the pomegranate and grape juice. ��
Dave you’re right. As a Naturopathic Dr n Nutritionist I deal with this misinformation daily. There are several other health issues with milk. Besides the mucous production and rise in CRP ( which is the beginning of most diseases) milk causes a substantial amount of plaque build up in the arteries. I’ve seen several patients ( some of them elite athletes) that do everything right except that they have been daily milk drinkers. Many of them had to have extensive chelation therapy to clear the arteries to prevent an eminent heart attack!!!
This is good…i need to listen again… One little comment…i feel she worries too much about fats/dairy. Man is different to sea animals. Our body temperature is higher. Butter is good for you. So is beef dripping and so is cheese. Raw milk is a gift from God. Like all of the plants and the animals.
I am a vegetarian.. And suffering from brain diseases.. What is the solution to it
One of the best Post workout for me. It’s natural. And i do see huge deference in my body. Instead of all these protein powder.
Avoid all these industrial seed oils!!!! Eat good quality meats
chill wit allat nonsense. Aint nobody spending they whole life time on celery sticks and cucumbers.
Agreed, Dave! I shake my head every time I see that ridiculous commercial on TV. Great post!
Have been drinking milk daily for 13 days now. Day 14 I teleported to work instead of driving. Will keep updated
Eat, sleep, move and have healthy relationships. Avoid products that have a label, added sugars, fried foods and refined food, alcohol and smoking sigarettes. Instead, eat greens, beens, mushrooms, seeds, berries, unions and always add herbs and spices. A whole food plant based diet is what is best for you. Don’t forget to supplement B12 and iodine. It’s all about knowing your risks.
I think it’s fine if your not dieting down hard for a show but there are a lot of people that do just fine drinking milk that don’t get gas or diarrhea. How absorbable is a protein powder that is artificially made? I guarantee, and willing to bet money that high grade real milk will do a lot better, just don’t drink a gallon of milk lol. Just like if you eat 20 oz of meat your gunna get some horrible gas. I have a dannon light and fit Greek yogurt (along with other carbs and proteins) to get a small amount of sugar, every post workout, every day and have no problems. I can’t eat too much meat otherwise I get some severe severe issues. Plenty of protein powders that are far worse as you know and whole real foods is a way to go. I’m pretty sure if you can’t get in decent shape from 8g of sugar in a single serve milk That you need to re adjust your diet.
Yes good but diabetes people may some problems but they can drink milk controlly
How much epicatechin is in cacoa powder?
I can not seem to find any info online
No to apple cider vinegar and no to coconut oil.. and yes to GMO she’s definitely working for big pharmaceutical ��
I break out and arms feel like I’m on fire since I turned 40. Lol
The best gains I’ve ever made was by drinking 4 pints of milk a day. The problem with videos like this is that it cookie cutters genetics and removes individualism.
Milk can work well for many people.
Chocolate fairlife milk. Double the protein and calcium, half the sugar and no lactose. Your welcome
Little titbit…sugar doesnt need insulins permission to get into a cell. It can get in directly. Via glucose transporters. After intense muscular contraction. Work out ppl lets get them gyms back open.
So basically nothing is good for you. Just eat whatever just don’t eat too much of it.
Hey.
Could you do a video about which yogurt is best?
(1% fat, 3,8% fat, etc..)
Avoid red meat and dairy products. Also fish; mass produced fish products, since it contains levels of heavy metals and other toxins. Also don’t eat meat, reduce the amount of suffering in the world and your body rewards you with health
That globe is very aesthetic, anyone know where you can get one?
Dragging through the info. maybe some good info, the butter comment I left before then, undermined the whole talk a bit,wondered what else she may have been wrong about.
Milk is literally casein and whey. Why do people take this guys advice anyways? He has one of the worst physiques in bodybuilding history
Great talent Callum mongover bit sometimes see people posting miss information like that people gonna follow that thinking they gonna be like Callum Iharcore bodybuilding macho que se respeta not buy mens Health
The only fruit worth bothering about is berries? So much for “an apple a day keeps the doctor away”. I am not impressed by this woman.
Great talk, thanks. My burger addled brain got sidetracked by the subtitles. I now understand that Tofu is a Lego. So in general then, is plastic good to eat or is it just too late for me?
Please stop terrifying people when you admittedly don’t know anything about herbal medicine. It might be better to consider referring to a professional that does.
58:53 she says GMOs are safe, and to stop fussing about it. She is hiding something
Milk is actually super food. It increases my sense of well-being and level of consciousness in every way particularly vision. Like I changed my lenses to ultra HD.
The fantastic talk is scarred with weak soil conditions, mineral depletion, toxic pesticides that cannot be picked up by the average person. How do you measure all these things in that amazingly looking broccoli? You cannot, but you can when you buy GMP regulated nutritional supplements that you can do some label screening. Do you rather want to wake up after eating all the healthy foods one day with a degenerative disease or prepare for knowing that it it cannot provide what we need these days?
Linds C Young I am quite a proponent of natural heath connected with medical. I believe we will always need medical guidance.
This is not all great information for people needing sound advice on how to become and stay healthy at any age, especially into the later years, in my opinion. Don’t take this as gospel, especially about coconut oil. At 1:15:38.
You won’t get acne through milk, but only through added sugar in your milk!
LET’S GET GLYPHOSATE OUT OF OUT FOOD! FAKE PROTIEN THAT CAUSES CANCER…NO MONSANTO
Thank you so much for the elaborated video. I now have a better understanding of diabetes and how glucose builds up in the body causing a spike in sugar. No one could have explained it better, especially using the children method. Thank you
chocolate milk has the perfect ratio of carbs to protein for post work out recovery. also has healthy fats.
Who are the 1.3K under qualified sub-idiots that disliked the presentation…
Hmmmm. Not sure about this. Let me hop over to MD and #askRon and see what his take is on it.
I saw an article on this generations problem with the rise in Alzheimer’s and it stated that much of it can be attributed to metal tooth fillings that give off mercury. The ADA has not officially acknowledged this as it would open the industry up to a plague of lawsuits but it is the main reason they no longer use them. In the article it stated that an exhumed body that had been buried for ten years was tested and the metal fillings were still giving off mercury.
This is good…i need to listen again… One little comment…i feel she worries too much about fats/dairy. Man is different to sea animals. Our body temperature is higher. Butter is good for you. So is beef dripping and so is cheese. Raw milk is a gift from God. Like all of the plants and the animals.
I think this type of information doesn’t really improve People’s health, it can actually worsen people’s health because the worry that comes with this kind of talk in itself causes health problems, we are here and then we die and there’s no magic bullet to fix any health problems when a person’s body is shutting down due to genetics and bad choices, especially nowadays with the coronavirus I think the trust of people in health advisors has gone down considerably because we are witnessing the helplessness of the modern medicine and the non existence of medical advances in so many different fields of medicine, vaccines, treatments, and the inexcusable high costs for minor health emergencies, I think the medical science hasn’t achieved major breakthroughs in the last 50 years or so
But at the same time we keep hearing about the incredible cures and breakthroughs that are in the pipelines but they never materialise, it’s best to be honest with people and let them enjoy what they have without more scares.
Total coincidence that I covered 2 highly contentious topics for vegans back to back. In any case, if you missed my last video covering everything on the vegan diet, I’d recommend giving it a listen! Here’s the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_qoyoItiB1E
Hope you all had a great weekend!
Drinking 2 litre of full fat milk a day. No digestion issues. My body growing muscle alot faster
If u r lactose intolerant, keep the gas to ur self.. Most are not lactose intolerant.. Milk n chocolate milk, is super food
I’m on day 3 of the galling of chocolate milk and so far so good.I feel like my arms are getting stronger and thicker.Im doing for 3 weeks and let’s see what happens by then
Nice propaganda. Any studies that weren’t done/funded by nut jobs?
Actually milk is not good for you because it’s basically just Hormones so that means cow milk is only meant for babies so then they put things inside this milk because it’s just hormones fun fact
Fairlife Choclate Milk. Zero lactose. 50% more protein, 50% less carbs. Does that fit the bill?
Every body is different. My body loves dairy and I consume it daily, nothing happens. Know your body and your needs.
Actually, feral cats steal milk from elephant seals…..
Fucking what? lol
While dairy may be healthy from a physiological standpoint, it is still extremely cruel towards the cow and bobby calfs.
I’m aware Jeff is trying to limit his impact on animals, and he mentions wanting to make ethical decisions surrounding food in other videos, so I’m simply putting it out there for him to research, if he wishes:)
I don’t get it. Why recommend chocolate milk if casein digests slower and has lower amounts of leucin than soy and whey? Casein makes up about 80% of the proten in cow milk.

bs it’s better to wait 30 min before taking in protein after working out
WTF are you on about, you know whey comes from milk, also dont talk to me about gas, protein powder is the worst thing for gas
Scientists found cows milk is packed with vitamins and minerals and so said it was the perfect food for health, problem is cows milk is hard to digest, unlike human milk, so the vitamins and minerals from cows milk don’t get to get in the human body because of that.
Milk IS bad for you..Though if you have it occasionally it normally won’t cause problems. A way to know is to totally cut out milk and other dairy for a month then see what happens to your body and how you feel.
Guarantee it will only be good to quite possibly phenomenal without it. I quit milk and sugar many year’s ago in a nutritionist advised diet and I dropped 30 pounds. 205 to 175. Felt incredible and I could eat two full plates of dinner or more without gaining a pound. My metabolism had kicked in because my gut was no longer being poisoned by sugar and dairy.
Skinny, cut and veiny arms and I could eat a horse. Only NO SUGAR and very little cheese once in a while. Once you quit sugar, you’re body and your brain no longer want it.
Does it work with cacao powder in milk? Then you can control the suger content and is less fat.
Milk from grocery is very different from fresh milk from the farm. The studies on milk are done with the former type of milk.
Tell me why he looks like a mix of Canelo the boxer and InfiniteLists the YouTuber
NUTELLA CONTAINS 7.4% OF COCOA. DO THE MATH AND YOU CAN GET BIGGER ��������
I’ve restarted to drink milk and I restarted to break out…
Thank you, Chinese, Canadian born ♥️�������� been drinking milk since I was born, I’m 57 years old now. I drink over 4 gallons of milk per month, I got strong bones and amazing muscle tone and I don’t even have to work out to maternal muscles, haven’t broken a single bones in my life, But eaten pavement many times….
This is the one video I don’t like video from Jeff, doesn’t mention get milk from a good source (farm) at least in America where farmers just inject and feed the cows hormones the increases estrogen in which later on transfers to us, they feed them anything to have them gain weight. Its time to be aware. Andrew Yang 2020!!!
What about replanishing your glycogen with CM after an hard endurance training?
Your voice sounds like a prepubescent boy on a cartoon show
please don’t put me in a comma
What about estrogen milk and cheese? Isn’t cheese made of concentrated milk? Shouldn’t it have a lot of estrogen? Can I eat 3 slices of cheese a day every day and that’s ok?
I have lactose intolerance but I find this helpful, when ever I need to go I just drink a few cups of milk and I feel like a soft serve ice cream machine. I love milk but I dont drink it at work only at home.
So happy right now. Was on the casp of stopping all dairy consumptions even though I LOOOVE my morning muesli.
4:00 Alzheimer happens in due to: Antidepressants, All Fast Foods, Industrialized Foods, we are what we eat, that is it!!! People are way too lasy to cook at home since the 80’s eating frozen garbage foods, well there is the negative results. People age 40 e 50 years young are developing Alzheimer.
I drink lactose free,fat free (skim) fair life milk. The macros are pretty good. 13g protein, 6g carbs,0 fat. 80 calories per serving (1 cup).
I had a lady tell me that they think there is a link between your sense of smell and Alzheimer’s. I’ve looked it up and verified that. The lady who told me this could not smell her bananas. I have to have an excellent sense of smell.
Thank you so much im 14 i drink 1 liter a day since i was 10 (till then i drank like half a liter) and everybody says its bad for me
Am I the only one who doesn’t want to live until I’m 90 or 100? Lol! Why don’t we all just try to eat as healthy as we can, enjoy what we eat, and most importantly, cherish who we eat with. Stress less, laugh more, and live in the moment. You never know when your time is up.♥️
I use chocolate milk to fill in extra calories towards the end of the night.
Nice video as usual, but I hoped that you also covered the claims about the high increasement of estrogen from consuming milk
Ok serious question how do cats steal milk from seals? What do they run in for a sneaky suck at the teet then scamper off
I’m 18 drink 3 12 oz milk protein shakes a day for the past 3 years. Honestly easy way to get protein and healthy fats and carbs thru non food products. Just do what works for u milk makes your bones strong and had creatine in it so. I think it’s up to u Jesus made milk and the land of milk and honey and they were giant humans so proof in the pudding. Drink your milk grow stronger. Just get greens and meat as well
Love where the part that the bad was colored blue instead of red.
It’s more expensive per gram for protein than a whey powder, and that it has casein is negligible.
You’re more than likely going to get enough carbs through your diet because they are just stupid easy to come across.
You can get tastier fat sources by adding butter or nut/fruit oil to your dry-ass chicken.
It’s not a waste if you love chocolate milk, but if you’re doing it for benefits there are much better, less costly ways to get those benefits.
I think it depends on the person. I never had acne until after 6 years of Veganism, zero dairy, then I suddenly had all sorts of skin problems. Left veganism but still didn’t go back to milk and the majority of acne/dermatitis and redness went away but remained hormonal once a month. Then I cut out processed food and sugar, added back dairy and all acne and other skin issues disappeared. Definitely not a dairy problem in my particular case. My descent is Northen European though and I’m sure my ancestors were used to drinking it.
And also, how the hell could milk pull “calcium out of the bones”? You’re just stupid, it’s not even biologically possible.
I gave up milk in my late teens because I thought I was lactose intolerant until I found a2 milk.
Just as crazy as the paid studies for milk are the opposite people who want to destroy the industry. Im gonna do what I do.
Raises estrogen levels tremendously which in turn makes you body have lower testosterone levels. Definitely studies all about that about there. That wasnt made by researchers paid for from the milk industry.
Facts are all y’all ifbb “bodybuilders” are juice up. So wtf are you telling about nutrition and sleep and all other bull shit when y’all don’t even have a real job. And we work 9 plus hours and hardly fucking sleep. So until you live the life we live then y’all can give us advice. Until then keep y’all advice to y’all selves, because 1 we not on roíds (is NATURALS) 2 we not privilege to even eat four meals a day and we hardly ever get 8 hours of sleep. So please people wake the fuck up.
Lmfaaao this guy is trying to prove (through dairy funded studies) that cows milk is good for us.
Stop. Please.
As a Swede we drink milk all the time and dairy is part of our culture pretty much. I love milk with my protein, but I have a relative that died of prostate cancer, so… rip my prostate in like 40 years I guess, haha.
I love chocolate milk but I do get bloated but no diarrhea, vomiting or gas so that’s good
What about lactose free protein chocolate milk? 18g protein per 250ml…?
Lifes simple, not everyomes the same so to be a master of yourself GO TEST IT YA SELF! have a nice day peeps:)
Cats steal tit milk from seals, what the actual fuck, im sorry but i cant let that go without saying something
Still, i am not able to identify how my acne is occurring.
Your video was awesome but sir help me on this one.
“You can take milk from his benefits, it’s a rich protein and minerals source and helps to increase Muscle mass.”
I’m done with this kid.

Milk of other species they provide nothing to humans other than fat and carbs.
Check out the books on milk only dieting by Dr. Porter and Bernarr Macfadden in the early 1900s. Its an easy read and kinda funny from a modern perspective

I enjoy a mocha latte and banana as post workout meal more so because it gives me some energy back ready for the PM session later on. And while I’m at work
Post workout I take milk with whey protein, Muscletech Celltech, or Universal Nutrition Torrent. That’s all.
What I do is I buy dried cocoa beans, mix it in blender with milk and banana. The result is incredibly tasty and healthy shake.

yeah man i’m stupid. oh by the way, get your cholesterol level tested and then get your arteries scanned for all the plaque you got stuck up in there. suck on that hot dog like you suck on that cigarette. your in cancervillle. enjoy.
Fish oil, turmeric, black pepper, ginkgo, green tea, ginger, water, leafy greens are great for our brain, exercise, etc are great for the brain.
Says the man whom, unashamedly, calculatedly and meticulously, rubs copious amounts of boot polish into his scalp each morning, and probably does touch-ups in the bathroom throughout the day.
so this epic breakthrough is that having a protein shake after gym increases muscle growth?… why hasnt anyone broken the bad news to this guy?
Mind diet how can you compare marg to butter. Beef is actually 50% monounsaturated fat. Do your self a big favour and ignore that stupid Mind diet… sat fats are not trans fat. Sat fat does not promote inflamation!!!
I’ve managed to get quite the taste for dark chocolate ever since I’ve heavily reduced my sugar intake. I eat 80-85% dark chocolate:D
hey1 how ’bout JAPANESE food1? Okinawa has more centinarians ny place on Earth! I am deeply surprised that Jfoods from Japan like not at all! or as questions from your audience. I am 17 most likely your youngest viewer, I am mostly north European but have some Japanese ancestry as well. There is more to like Japanese food than just like sushi! Please remember like to include Japanese food in your next webinar or the like as well. Thanks
But you actually do need sugar to “bring the protein to the muscles” so it’s not that bad things hat it has added sugar because if you just have normal milk for example the only sugar your getting is lactose and it has to be glucose
100%. I see guys with zero muscle crushing this after workouts all the time lol. Then they tell everyone the benefits. Oh well each to their own.
What drives me nuts is you recommending mc donald diet and saying some chocolate milk is terrible post workout drink… Extend lifespan with all the shit you put in your body back in the days you moron? You wanna sell those shitty supplements of yours thats it.
When I was a kid that was my breakfast big tall glass of cold chocolate milk my protein drink when I was young ��
it’s a DAMN shame the camera man didn’t think the whiteboard was worth looking at what the man was talking about.
I ate 500000 grams of dark chocolate and now I’m a super sayain
Actually flying monkey rats also steal milk from the titties of jungle tigers

These jawzrsize commercial need to stop. Dude has horrible hair too.
The protein u get in those yuck powders u can get in a can of tuna
So save your money these supplements companies just making $$$$ on suckers who buy
Get your protein from good old food
Obviously its not healthy lol (idk why he keeps lingering on that point) but in terms of a post workout shake how is it that bad really? It’s got a ton of protein it’s dirt cheap it has a mix of fast and slow digesting protein it has simple sugars to spike insulin and allow for nutrient absorption and it’s usually fortified with vitamins just like powders are. I mean on paper it seems like it really is a fairly good post workout drink no?
Dave… this was quite the rant you can tell you really needed to get this off your chest lol!! I feel you brother!! Hate misleading articles and information for the general public SMH keep these vids coming!
Will you please get to the point and stop repeating yourself….
Whey protein never existed in the golden era of bodybuilding, and yet excellent physiques were built..milk..eggs..meat..veges.
Allow me to sear an image into your eyes. Look at the cow’s hind left leg. 1:20.
You haven’t seen all the studies done on chocolate milk…. It’s one of the best post work out drinks. even national geographic agrees….. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfYeEa6z0mY
not to mention this (breaking down why it’s top notch): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHsnr9LNer4
I make a protein cereal chocolate lactose free milk all natural
Big fan of all your work, really appreciate the effort put in. Could you do a video on spirulina? I’ve heard links to allow significantly more calorie consumption so it could be effective for bulking
Most chock milk messages are targeted to younger/ teen audiences. A demographic where sodas and phony sports drinks are very competitive. So for that demographic chocolate milk is an excellent recovery option, one of the best out there. Especially if they are willing to drink it.
Everybody’s different. Some people don’t digest whey protein very well. Some people have problems digesting casien, some don’t digest certain meats very well. Find out what works for you and stick with it.
Supplements are the biggest scam in the industry. Heat whole food, fruit, and vegetables. That’s all you need. Palumbo’s full of shit and so is the entire supplement industry.
So many wrong things said by him. Lactose does NOT create diarrhea. Diarrhea is caused by bacteria or virus only. Lactose is plenty absorbable through the body. Chocolate milk has lots of sugar in it, absorbed by the muscles very quickly. Lots of protein in it, which is going to be absorbed (if milked caused you to not be able to absorb nutrients would we breast feed?..).
The calories aren’t bad at all. You can drink a big bottle of chocolate milk & get 90g of protein, 780 calories. You’re going to tell me that isn’t going to build mass?
I want to remind you calories the most important thing in size and performance. You seem to have forgotten this simple fact along the way of trying to sell your own shit protein.
I drink chocolate milk regardless lol as long as it isn’t hindering me much.
Organic Chocolate milk that is:) I buy some from a local farmer in michigan who has jersey cows with an all grass-fed diet.. they use organic chocolate in it too.. the absolute BEST chocolate milk I have ever had in my life.
Thank y’all so much dearest ��
Y’all such an inspiration ��
Be Blissful Eternally ������

No need for expensive rip off sports nutritional protein powders!
What is the best way to get to the weight you want and stay with it
@PictureFit, I would like to implement this into my diet and fitness goals so please clarify something for me. I see many studies, articles, and discussion threads stating that u need only about 30grams of 85% cocoa purity dark chocolate instead of 60grams as stated in this video. Could this be an accidental mistake on ur part? If not what could it be? It’s literally exactly half of ur recommended amount. And secondly, could u tell me how much of what pure cocoa powder extract I need for the same effect? Thanks! Anyone else is welcome to a answer as well of course.
Whole grains, Beans??? Healthy? No, steer away from these foods, if you haven’t heart of lectins and their detrimental effects on your gut health, brain health, insulin resistance, read these up before deciding on eating these foods. On the other hand, butter and saturated fats aren’t evil, infact they are conducive to good health.I was on this recommended diet for 6 years, very strictly ( I hadn’t touched sugar for over 30 years, lots of fruits and vegetables and BEANS and Oats and whole grains, yes, all of these above), but only saw my health going down the path of insulin resistance, until I learnt better and changed to Keto diet, my health is better than it had been over the last 30 years. I agree with vit D argument, and guess what, butter is rich in K2, which works in tandem with D3 and Calcium to maintain not just bone health, but more importantly your cardiovascular health. So, don’t exclude grass fed butter as it is one of the supper foods.
All you fucks talkin shit on Dave fucking palumbo are duuuuuuuumb. If you don’t agree then don’t watch
But what about sugar in it..
In market we can’t find low sugar chocolate what to do then??
Dave Palumbo also thinks that vaccines cause Autism.
How can I trust his health views?LOL
Dave hates mis-information, sensationalistic headlines, and terrible advice…. good to know he hates CNN: )
I’m 22:26 minutes into this & i already see contradictions proving she’s following the standard American death sentence. It seems as though she understands the goal but her med school programming is so engrained that she will go on to mislead everyone. You can not lower blood sugar or insulin with lots of healthy fruit & veg. A video like this should distinguish those strictly for individuals with healthy blood sugar. @ 22:26 she’s about to try to convince us that some special form of whole grain can do something good for blood sugar & brain health. This is where i give thumbs down & switch off. This is categorically WRONG. This is the backbone of the standard American death sentence & the recipe for your mulit billion dollar medical sickness industry. I’m sorry but, i’m offering constructive criticism.
If you have a health issueYouTube “that issue” & “Dr Ken Barry”. That’s where you’ll find unbiased dietary truth.
When considering eating healthy, you must try not to fall victim to modern day fad diet plans. Extreme diet plans are a danger for your health, especially ones that seriously restrict your everyday nutritional intake. Many of these fad diet plans work for a short period and then the benefits decrease after a while. It is best to search Custokebon Secrets on the google search engine as it isn’t just another fad diet where you starve yourself.
Its fine as long as your taking the same drugs calum is taking…
I need proof. Someone who feel some different after doing this? Tell me
That’s bullshit, I mix all my protein in milk, all fucking adults aren’t lactose intolerant, and I bet milos sarcev like the fast carbs post workout. Stan rhino efdering says he loves whole eggs and milk
I love that people still are an advocate for milk. It has been shown that most positive results are from dairy funded research so even if you do meta analysis it will just point to the same conclusion as their research outnumber the ones who do not agree with their findings. That said, it is clearly that people are trying to vilify a food group. No milk is not as bad as vegans think, but no it is aint as good as carnivores think. The problem with milk and their derived product cheese is we eat range from 30 to 70 lbs per year. That is way too much since dairy products are in lots of more products. As with many things related to nutrient it is not the food type but the amount we consume. The conclusions of the research papers are really biased as there is never a down side.
Doesn’t Jay Cutler swear on some kinda sugar shit post workout?
As soon as she said yes to gmo foods and dairy, and np to fats, she proved to be working for the pharmaceutical industry.
If my cocoa chocolate has may contain mil does that mean that it has milk i dont want milk
Someone should get that chocolate milk an entry into the Olympia
When I hit a plateau and lacked motivation in the form of fatigue I drank chocolate milk during my workout and had better results than the previous week.
Due to the sugar of course, which I usually avoid, but since then I always drink it, it’s a great booster.
I recover much better afterwards.
Have you tried Maxidale.com
There you can watch a great free video demonstrating how you can build up notable lean muscle fast whilst shedding unwanted fat simultaneously.
Kyle Leon is among the numerous men which experienced good success because of this method.
Give it a try
Why does the dashing sugar formulate the expert?
The number refines the roasted top.
What if we are mid 30’s and can digest lactose like a machine. 1 gallon per day of milk seems to put weight and muscle on me pretty solidly.
It wouldn’t be a good idea to have it every morning right…
I don’t really care about the pros and cons, I just wanna drink my choccy milk:)
what I found
Distribution
Epicatechin is present in many plants. High quantities can be found in cocoa, tea and grapes.
Health Benefits of Epicatechin
Epicatechin is a strong antioxidant, has insulin mimic action and improves heart health. Dr. Norman Hollenberg of Harvard Medical School found that Kuna indians, who live on the San Blas Island Chain in Panama and drink high quantities of cocoa drinks, have a lower risk of stroke, heart failure, cancer and diabetes compored to the Indians living on the mainland. Dr. Norman Hollenberg even suggests to consider epicatechin as a vitamin.
Attenuation of diabetes
Studies show that epicatechin and other flavonoids exert a protective role on osmotic fragility of cells, similar to that of insulin. The mechanism of action of epicatechin is different to that of insulin and remains speculative. In diabetic red blood cells epicatechin causes an increase in acetylcholinesterase activity. This activity is significantly lower in type 2 diabetic patients.
Heart health
Epicatechin reduces lipid peroxidation and inhibits platelet aggregation. Epicatechin cause blood vessel dilation by regulating nitric oxide, a molecule secreted by the blood vessel endothelium to signal surrounding muscle to relax.
Can you please do a video on milk and if the protein in it is used to repare muscle. Because the information I have seen says our body wastes the protein from cow milk. Is this true?
Whole Organic Valley grassmilk + Hershey syrup = best chocolate milk in the world. I know Hershey syrup isn’t good for you but it tastes amazing.
This powerpoint is elementary school level, who hired this person??? No wonder the school system is the way it is!!!
drats i purchased 3 liters of chocolate milk and drink it after work out and errm i now see this vid!………i just assumed it was the replacements of electrolytes.
Milk is a disaster for human health. You’d have to be insane to consume it.
Personally, I like to drink chocolate milk after soccer practice or conditioning. Water is great for hydrating, but it doesn’t contain electrolytes. Gatorade and other sports drinks have hydrating properties, as well as replenishing electrolytes, like sodium. Chocolate milk, is best for sore muscles or just after an intense workout in general. It’s water content can hydrate you, it has nutrients to replenish what you’ve lost, AND it has protein…the key to rebuilding muscles bigger and stronger. Anyways, I just think chocolate milk works well for me after exercise.
Anyone try an epicatechin supplement? I’m curious to see if it really works? I’ve got an extremely small frame and already fulled out my frame quite a bit. Want some feedback because its expensive!
What are the better drinks u mentioned that has better protein and fat without added sugar?? Are you referring to a simple full fat milk??
Did you know that Chocolate milk includes Alkali which is a Chemical compound (which includes bits of rock)?!?
Much of this advice is nonsense. Anyone who recommends whole grains and low animal fats has no idea what they are talking about.
I personally have had great benefits with chocolate milk, after a workout! Not saying it’s for everyone, but I dig it! I’ve also quit buying protein powders and started eating more quality foods, upped my carbs, and seen better results than when I was constantly taking protein powders. Now mind you, I’m not a competitive bodybuilder.
Hey, in this video you spoke about chocolate milk as recovery-drink. But out there, you can find a big discussion about non-alcoholic beer for a better recovery. It would be great seeing a video about non-alcoholic beer. Is it really worth it? @picturefit
Thank you so much for your videos and awesome content!
85% Green and Blacks Dark chocolate bar.
50 grams a day (half a bar) eaten throughout the day.
Better yet, just buy raw cocoa beans and mix it with stuff. (40g a day since its higher cocoa %)
like always: the difference is what CM you drink, I do my own CM with pure CaCao powder (organic) (no sugar added) and fresh milk, that is totally great stuff
I’m part Asian. Milk and dairy products I can’t have due to colon problems. Is NON-Dairy products is helpful for muscle mass?
How’s it going picture fit I love watching your videos and I appreciate all the research that you do on your topics. One topic that I can’t find anywhere is about prediabetes, insulin resistance, and diabetes in reference to weightloss or gaining muscles. Could you make a video explain to the world what researches have been made because I hear so many different points of views. Thank you for taking your time in reading this. One of your biggest fans.
too much chocolate milk can decrease your health, so if you drink a lot of chocolate milk drop your amounts to lower levels
Error on my part about ghrelin. Dark chocolate actually has an inverse relationship with ghrelin, meaning it suppresses it. Ghrelin is actually the ‘hunger’ hormone and suppressing it is what controls appetite. The claim of reducing appetite is the same, but wanted to clarify that. Apologies!
Could you do a video about blood flow restriction training please?
After watching this I don’t believe ur science based anymore ��. Later ✌️. (Unsubscribed as well)
Please make a video on toning vs growing muscle you’re the only channel on YouTube who explains themselves well!!
1:20 The overall group be like: I didn’t improve them, I DID NOT,…. (Ok, I’m leaving)
What about the pure powder without the processed added suger and calories? How much of that will you need?
I’m a track runner, and I drink this stuff after my long workouts. My recovery time is definitely shorter than when I don’t.
Not only is the article funded by dairy but its also an article that uses other articles that could very possibly be in accurate to provide an observation… It’s not an actually controlled experiment.
I couldn’t finish this video I’m sorry. I’m sure most of the information here was decent but watching this is torture for me…
“Humans are the only animals that drink the… “… woow what??? Not an animal bro. Do not adress humanbeings as animals its disrespectful. You are a impecable intelligent being thats majestic and has honour. Your not a treechimp.
Because of all the hormones in dairy,it opens the flood gates for weight gain..Its a pretty simple process..Elevated female hormones come hand in hand with pregnancy..So,with that in mind,people who consume dairy regularly,are pregnant, except their not pregnant,just the retaining weight part.And with all that hormone continuously being ingested, there is zero hope for that person to EVER loose weight while they still consume dairy. All you people out there who say they cant loose weight….STOP EATING DAIRY FOREVER and try loosing weight again.
I’d bet it works well and never returns to how it was pre dairy
If dairy was full of male hormone we would all be ripped like a gorilla..Well if your dumb enough to eat it.
I really don’t understand that! humanity drinking milk for thousands of years. modern life suddenly trying to change us regularly. for example many years ago eggs were BAD for health according to studies. recently is good and healthy WOW???!!! Surprise> and commercial industries as i see pushing us to drink almond milk, oat milk and other kind of milk which are disgusting tasteless and very expensive as if the goal of these campaigns are our money. not everyone can buy it beside it’s TASTELESSSSSSS. euw. i trust nature. beside humanity in general intoxicate our food but nature not.
Could you make an in-depth video on how diarrhoea effects weight loss/gain, how it effects total calories.
Keep up the good work��
Chocolate Milk XD…. Nah man you’ve got to use Ice Cream
i drink it cause of the small nutritional benefits but also cause it tastes amazing
Come on, Calum Von Moger. Have you ever checked out his video’s? This guy eats garbage and still looks impressive.
How about low fat chocolate milk for post workout. Low fat has more protein and more sugar so it’s perfect for post workout.
From my own use of having chocolate milk after a workout, I found that I wasn’t losing as much weight as before I started drinking it, so when I stopped I got back on the faster weight loss train. All that extra sugar man. So bad.
Any supplements or medication that can have the same effect?
Didn’t even know this was a thing just drank it for the kalories^^
I usually drink whey post workout. If I’m headed home afterwards I will use whey with 2% fat milk if I’m not in a cutting phase.
Forget the milk.
Look at Daves condition.
Looking lean as fuck.
So chocolate flavored protein shakes are even a better option?
Can you please do an episode about muscles breakdown at night? Many articles suggest that we should eat slow digesting protein before bed to prevent muscle breakdown but is it true?
I dont see the water and chocolate milk comparisons,
as legitimate.
Picturefit. You should do a video on the affect rhat watching/having porn/sex before and after workout.
Back when Lyle McDonald first started recommending it (ten years ago? I’m getting old), I always thought the emphasis was in the opposite direction in other words, don’t waste your money on expensive recovery drinks, they aren’t nutritionally superior to plain chocolate milk.
that’s okay
but it talks a lot of chocolate milk period pooh
Could you please do a video that goes over Metabolic adaption/Damage. Would really appreciate it. Btw love the content you’ve been putting out. It’s always very insightful and helpful.
cow milk reduce testosteron and raises estrogen, read about this…your magic “chocolate milk “
One thing cocoa is a byproduct of cacao ripped of nutrients so you’d better go for cacao
Your fat info are behind, the new info of 2020 for the heart and brain
Just stop drinking milk, period. You’re not a baby and certainly not a cow.
No secret here, old bodybuilders drank the shit out if it.Its a very slow digesting protein so the amounts stay steady in the blood stream.
Look up Fairlife Chocolate Milk (lactose-free). Protein, carbs, and fat. The perfect post-workout!!!
I disagree what she said about the Supplements can be good, just be sure its a good brand. Natural is better than pharmaceutical drugs. Make food your medicine and medicine your food. Supplements and extract are and can be effective. GMO is bad, they cause diseases, and this has been proven. Not even the rats in laboratories have to be forced fed with GMO’s because they don’t want to eat it. Avocados are delicious I eat a whole one each time, and doing fine, I can keep my weight done with eating good fats, the good fats are good to eat…
nigga did he just say what everyone’s been trying to say but smarter… great info in all seriousness
Lind’s dark chocolate 99 %says may contain SOY should l go ahead?
lol. There are both good and bad cholesterols (google it), but please go on being a vegan. I bet you are really weak as well due to lack of protein.
Your videos are great. Can you please tell me if milk is good for gaining muscles? Some people say that the protein in boiled milk is not absorbed by our bodies.
Is it the best protein source no. Does that mean there’s no benefit to drinking chocolate milk? Also No.
Cal Dietz (one of the most well known strength and conditioning coaches in the world of college sports) is a big advocate of chocolate milk.
32oz has over 800 calories and tastes better and goes down better than most weight gainers. Easily accessible for young kids and teens trying to put on weight. Parents are more likely to supply it as well.
One school close to me actually gets all the milk from their cafeteria that is near expiring and hands it out after workouts. Their football team has made multiple trips to the state championship and become a perennial powerhouse.
As for me, when I was competing, I preferred a whey isolate. So while milk is not the best, it’s still better than nothing for young kids.
You are stupid. Humans are predators! We have been eating meat since the dawn of man.
Could you please link your reference sources and/or give more than one..
1:37 They say food doesn’t have an effect on the ph of the body.. That doesn’t make sense to me anything you put in your body effects the body??
What an idiot advising people to eat a liquid candy bar and cow secretions which causes the leaching of calcium out of your bones to re balance the high acidity of animal protein.
This guy is full of shit. NO animal protein is good for humans. It pulls calcium out of the bones to balance the high acid effect it causes on the blood. Go VEGAN for the best result on your health, the environment, and for the animals!
the channel nutritionfacts doesn’t agree about animal products.
Save you are wrong. Chocolate milk is post workout. Simple sugars and protein. Scientific research supports this
The main in all exercise no one likes it but its the main in all
Ronnie Coleman post workout drink
7 scoops of syntha 6 protein
Water
And Nesquik
That’s the secret guys Nesquik
What i get from this is that high quality chocolate is the way to go; most ‘chocolate milk’ drinks we buy are merely chocolate flavoured milks. The casein is a very real problem and inhibits ingestion of other nutrients your body needs especially after training. 80% cacao chocolate with all its flavonoids and polyphenols is way better.
Chocolate flavoured hemp milk or maybe almond milk may be the best.
it’s clearly a ad campaign from big dairy to boost chocolate milk sales.
Sorry, I’m not interested in going towards the Dark Side (of chocolate, of course). I’ll stick to my diet and workout.
1:20 I laughed so hard that it brought me to tears
what’s wrong with me
All the dislikes on this video is from vegans who don’t support the murder of cows lmfao
Good to know. Dark chocolate is the only one I actually enjoy sometimes. And though I’m supposed to increase my calories intake, I don’t like chocolate or sweets in general enough to eat so much of it
i have 80 percent cocoa chocolate how much do i need from that
You go fat if u eat choci u dumb bitches this guy is probaly fat as well
Pussy I’ve found is the best post workout food…no sugar, high quality protein and. Extremely tasty…..
I am not really a fan of sweet stuff so i can do away with it.
But it also contains sugar which can increase fat in body. Correct me if I’m wrong.
Put raw cacao powder in your plain flavored protein shakes. Add cinnamon, vanilla extract and sugar and you’re officially living.
Just saw this after I got a big bottle of CM from whole foods today lol
Dark chocolate over 60% tastes like shit. Bitches around Will eat It to look fancy, but the disgusting face you make After eating makes you look stupid. Milk chocolate and White so called chocolate are delicious but contain way too much Sugar and calories. Ideas: get some cacao Powder and try to implement It in Shakes, for example. I like to make milk chocolate of It…low heat, keep stirring, add a Dash of cardamom and a spoon of Honey. Refrigerate and consume It within 3 days… Training has never been the same since then…
I add chocolate protein powder to my chocolate milk for post workout. Taste delicious and I’ll get all the benefits from the protein powder. (BCAA and Protein and Insulin Spike from the milk sugars)
It’s chocolate. It’s still junk food. Chocolate is already heavily processed…You’re just consuming sugar and fat
Quickly becoming one of my favorite channels on here! Currently binging your catalogue lol
I just dont get that hype on this guy…just because he got pretty face and big, out of proportion arms makes him star? Had he got any success on bb stage?? Empty heroes generation
You my dude need to shut the fuck up with your POLUMBO gut ���� fucking idiotic freak clearly only knows how to improperly dose himself with gear and too much hgh…. nice fat gut you have/ had buddy. You have an era named after your SHIT GUT PHYSIQUE
I love whole milk. How could anyone drink processed non-fat milk water? I agree with most of the things discussed.
That’s it I’m gonna eat more dark chocolate and I’ll also see if gains are obtained from less chocolate aswell I’ll also compare to gains with out chocolate and compare results on my channel coming soon
I just followed this for 2 days. I’m sooo hungry! Bowls of broccoli, sweet potatoes, berries & some fish don’t fill me up. This is crazy.
And I’m not trying to lose any weight. Butter isn’t as bad as she claims. We need fat, even if a little is saturated. Fish oil isn’t the only answer & not all of it is so pure. Wish she recommended a good brand.
2 things also to mention
1. Sugar spikes insulin, and insulin, which is a hormone, can be anabolic, aka muscle creating/building, but also fat creating/building. So, chocolate/dark chocolate will give some sugar that may help in that regard, and also increase calorie intake which is needed to maintain or build weight/muscle.
2. Chocolate/dark chocolate is satisfying, and can be relaxing but mainly the point is that it can be mood improving, which can have a cascading effect on your neurotransmitters and hormones, perhaps relieving stress and reducing cortisol. This all improves your bodies ability to build muscle.
So, it isnt the healthiest option, but also not the unhealthiest option. Mainly referring to pure dark chocolate variety with real cocoa, about 50-100% cocoa. Milk chocolate generally has too much sugar and not enough actual chocolate/cocoa, and many times has other flavorings and ingredients, essentially unnecessary.
P.s. a bonus point Dark chocolate also has other antioxidants/flavonoids as well (which can reduce inflammation and promote proper/healthy muscle creation). Kk, I put a lot of pros for dark chocolate but dont go and give yourself diabetes, everything in moderation.
Just googled really quick to find a link for even more reference https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/7-health-benefits-dark-chocolate | Improves blood pressure and possibly inflammation (antioxidants can help with that)
Big Lenny believes in chocolate milk, post work out. You are wrong on this one Dave
Industries gonna have people “load up” in their first week of dark chocolate consumption����
Im not kidding when I say I have seen bodybuilders showing up to the gym with bars of dark chocolate…
Do a video about eating at night bad for health. Health not gain fat.
Does it change anything if I mix the chocolate with my protein shakes? I use 95% darkChocolate
What right do we have to eat another being? Nothing with eyes, wings, tails, legs for me thank you
Okay so next time I see a black person I’m going to eat them
I used to get so much gas from a glass of milk. I just said f it and drank a liter a day for couple weeks. It was so bad being on the toilet every hour just for gas. But took a short break and drank milk again. No gas ever since
It’s not the chocolate it’s the milk that aids recovery
If you are lactose intolerant then it’s not the drink for you
Chocolate milk has been my post-workout of choice for a couple years now….seems to be doing me just fine…as someone else commented, I add two scoops of whey to a 16oz. whole chocolate milk…tastes great and lots of protein.
Sadly I don’t like dark chocolate at all. Then again I’d eat pretty much anything if it helps ma gains
I guess I’ll try some dark chocolate if I feel I hit my genetic ceiling, but not until then.
I am a skinny guy. I am doing work outs and maintaining my diet since February. But the result was less gains
Hey picture fit i had egcg decaffeinated pills and it still felt like there was caffeine within…it’s pack with catechins..any help on which product actually have no caffeine instead of lies?
