So I heard on the Drs Show that chocolate milk will shred fat and help muscles. How? What makes the chocolate better than regular milk?

i believe somewhere i heard that chocolate is good for your heart (dark chocolate)
and milk is always healthy for you.. unless your lactosintolerant.

I think the chocolate milk being better is because of the sugar content.(while still having protein)

I dunno. I'm on a lotus-sunflower-kibbled rye meal, all mashed up into grainy powder whicH I add to my oats/cereal/homemade bread and baking. Usually I'll mix some up with some milo in a glass of milk which is just as good as a protein shake but without the shit that goes in some of that protein powder. I'm cheap like that.
Eww chocolate milk. I completely missed that topic :P I'll have a square or two (20 gram-ish) of dark chocolate. Apparently it's good, but I naturally like dark and prefer it to any other form of processed chocolate anyway. Sometimes when I'm bored I'll make my own hot chocolate out of pure cocoa or 90% dark.

I've never heard of chocolate milk being good for you. Shit, I don't even believe milk is as healthy for you as people claim it to be.
What is the Drs Show? The only one I know here is Dr. Oz. and dude seems full of shit from what I've seen. Not that he's always wrong, because I've heard him give good advice, but you shouldn't believe anything anyone says until researching for yourself.

I like that show. I tried researching it a little maybe 4 websites said it was good, and even better than water cause of carbs and the sugars and the protein and calcium.

Hi Rocky,
Chocolate is great antioxidant and helps in lowering high blood pressure and cholesterol level. Chocolate prevents us from cancer, depression and tooth decay. Chocolate is rich source of magnesium.
