NEW! PERFORMANCE FOOD CREDIT CRUNCH NUTRITION TIPS                                                                                  

Did you know that milk has been scientifically proven to help with your recovery after training?

glass of milk

Milk combines high quality proteins along with carbohydrate, minerals, vitamins and electrolytes in a liquid form. All these nutrients are essential ingredients of a sports performance diet.

A study published in the Journal of Applied Physiology, Nutrition and Metabolism (Aug 2008) has shown that drinking milk within 30 minutes of exercise has a positive impact on muscle recuperation.

Here at Performance Food we have always promoted the benefits of milk as part of a sports diet. Our DIY PF Recovery shake provides an amazing 35gms protein and 99gms carbs/pint at a cost of just 60p!

A typical branded sports recovery bar or shake can cost anywhere between £1.00 - £2.00 per serving! and thats not all! many do not come close to the protein, carb vitamins and electrolytes provided by our Performance Food DIY shake.

So we reckon that if you swap your commercial products for our Performance Food suggestions you could be well on your way to saving over £300 per year (based on use of recovery products 4 - 5x week)
