Answer preview

Studies have extensively focused on nutrition to maintain proper hydration for normal mental and physiological functioning, especially during and after exercise (Popkin, D’anci and Rosenberg, 2010; Holway and Spriet, 2011). In many studies, dairy products have been recommended as suitable rehydration options (Visioli and Strata, 2014; Fox et al., 2015). Accordingly, milk or drinks containing milk contain proteins which enhance muscle recovery and rehydration when used after intense physical activity (Burke, 2015; Crisà, 2013; Gilson et al., 2009). These studies attribute the hydration benefits of milk with the nutritious aspects including natural electrolytes, carbohydrates (4.9%), water (94%) and proteins (3.3%).( Crisà, 2013; Visioli and Strata, 2014; Fox et al., 2015)
