Sports Drink?
“ENJOY IT at the GYM.” This is the sage advice offered by Nestle on the top of their tetra-pak cartons of fresh low-fat milk sold at supermarkets all over the Philippines.
You know, this is something I’ve never actually thought about trying. And come to think of it, no one I have ever known who works out has ever mentioned to me that milk is a beverage of choice at the gym. I’m not an expert, but I really don’t think it is a good idea, particularly for running. I usually stick to the standard water or Gatorade, but I purposely avoid dairy products as I am afraid they will upset my stomach while running. Perhaps milk is consumed by body builders but from what I know they prefer those powdered protein concoctions.
I don’t know if Nestle really believes that drinking milk at the gym is a good idea or if they are just trying anything to get people to drink more milk. I for one won’t fall for this ploy.
