regular Milk is better then soy milk!

"The researchers took three groups of young men 18 to 30 years of age – 56 in total – and put them through a rigorous, five-day-per-week weightlifting program over a 12-week period. Following their workouts, study participants drank either two cups of skim milk, a soy beverage with equivalent amounts of protein and energy, or a carbohydrate beverage with an equivalent amount of energy, which was roughly the same as drinking 600 to 700 milliliters of a typical sports drink."-professor of McMaster university.


Researchers from McMaster University found that drinking skim milk after weightlifting outperforms both soy and carbohydrate beverages (similar to sports drinks) in regards to  muscle gain and fat loss. Those who took soy milk saw no loss in fat, whereas drinking milk led to twice as much as consuming carbohydrates.


Milk drinkers gained 40% more muscle mass than soy milk drinkers and 63% more than carbohydrate drinkers. While those drinking carbohydrate drinks lost 1 pound milk drinkers lost 2!

this article was published in the August edition of the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. The McMasters team is now looking for the components that attributed to the massive weight loss and Muscle gain.

This is a legit study and can help you get the professional results that you have always wanted out of your exercise routine. See you next time! Peace.
