TruMoo Review



I received a sample from TruMoo for the sole purpose of this review

Do your kids love drinking chocolate milk but you hate giving them the sugar or added calories? That's where TruMoo comes in. With 35% less sugar than a leading chocolate milk brand, it's sure to please your children AND yourself. 
TruMoo doesn't use any high fructose corn syrup, their farmers pledge NO growth hormones and it's made fresh from your local dairy. 



The chocolate is just 140 calories and the vanilla is 130 calories. They are 1% milk and they have 8 grams of protein. So know that you're giving your child a healthy treat when you give them TruMoo. 

It is sweetened with just enough sugar to supplement the naturally occurring sugar in milk (lactose). Studies show that adding this bit of sugar to nourishing food and drinks, like milk, encourages children and adolescents to consume the nutrients they need for a balanced diet at critical development stages. 

I've also made a smoothie with TruMoo by placing a banana, 1/2 container of chocolate TruMoo and some ice in a blender and it made a delicious chocolate, banana smoothie! So yummy. 

TruMoo can be found at Walmart and some other specialty stores. 

Price: a 6pack of shelf stable TruMoo is about $4-$5.

Overall: *****
*Disclaimer* I received an item directly from TruMoo in exchange for a review. I was not paid to try out these products*
A big thank you goes out to TruMoo for allowing me to review this product and for offering a giveaway

I learned that if your child works out tru moo is good for them because "chocolate milk post-workout is often referred to as “nature’s protein drink” since it contains a perfect ratio of protein and carbohydrates for replenishing tired muscles. Its high water content replaces fluids lost as sweat, while its electrolytes (like sodium and potassium) help to rehydrate".

Lowfat chocolate milk is also an effective recovery drink after exercise or sports practice. In fact, chocolate milk post-workout is often referred to as “nature’s protein drink” since it contains a perfect ratio of protein and carbohydrates for replenishing tired muscles. Its high water content replaces fluids lost as sweat, while its electrolytes (like sodium and potassium) help to rehydrate.*
