A study suggested that chocolate milk has an optimal ratio of carbohydrates to protein to help refuel and repair tired muscles after a workout session. Researchers found that the muscles were better able to rebuild after drinking fat-free chocolate milk as compared with drinking carb-only drink. Also, drinking fat-free chocolate milk led to a higher concentration of glycogen (muscle fuel) in muscles 30 to 60 minutes after exercise as compared with the sports drink.
