Muscle Milk vs Milk

Muscle Milk vs. Milk was the first muse workshop I attended. Out of all the muse workshops, I decided to attend this one because it seemed most interesting to me. From attending this workshop, I learned a lot about the two beverages, muscle milk and regular milk. However, the name "muscle milk" makes one believe that it is better for one’s body, it is false advertisement! Muscle milk is actually really bad for you and not to mention, it tastes awful! It is a not a good source of calcium. The best beverage to obtain calcium is the regular milk. It will build stronger bones and prevent osteoporosis. Everyone needs to take in calcium every day. Personally, I do not like to drink milk, but attending this workshop helped me learn different source of calcium. I learned that I have other choices such as plain yogurt, fruit yogurt, and various cheeses! Luckily, I love all of those!

Not only did this workshop talk about milk and calcium, but I learned how to live healthy life. The speakers discussed how important it is for one to eat breakfast. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day because it helps get one’s metabolism going.

Overall, attending this muse workshop was very useful; I learned different ways to manage a healthy life.
