IT’S IMPORTANT TO EAT HEALTHY AND EXERCISE.
Exercising gives you energy, it keeps your body strong and enables you to deal better with stress.
Eating healthy gives your body the energy and nutrition it needs.
Like fruits and vegetables, dairy products such as milk and yogurt fit in a healthy diet.
Did you know?
Milk
naturally contains 6 nutrients
that are important to move and exercise?
And that moving and exercising is good for body and mind?
This applies from young to old!
This is what happens
in your body when
you move or do sports
READY TO START?
It all starts in your head: your nerves and brain need to tell your muscles to move.
Nutrients, of which VITAMINS B2, B12, CALCIUM AND POTASSIUM
help your nervous system to function properly. And all of them are naturally found in milk.
Did you know?GO!
When muscles contact, they pull on our bones. When they relax the bone moves back. Voila: you move!
Calcium plays a role in the proper functioning of the muscles. Milk and yoghurt are naturally two of the most important sources of calcium in your diet.
KEEP GOING!…
ENERGY
You get energy from the carbs, fats and proteins you eat.
But your body can not just use this energy. Certain vitamins and minerals help to make this energy available.
Four of them are naturally found in milk: vitamins B2, B12, calcium and phosphor.
Did you know?MUSCLE STRENGTH
Your muscles consist mainly of protein. Every time you exercise you stress your muscles. In order to recover overstressed muscles you need new proteins.
Milk, yogurt and quark are naturally rich in protein. So by exercising your muscles more and more they will grow and become stronger.
Did you know?STRONG BONES
The strength of your bones is predominantly determined by your genes, but there are things you can do to improve them. Every day a part of your bone is broken down and rebuilt. By exercising you stimulate the creation of new bone mass.
Calcium is needed for strong bones. And more nutrients are involved in the maintenance of your bones, such as protein and phosphorous. Milk naturally contains protein, calcium and phosphorous. In addition vitamin D is important. You can get vitamin D by exercising outdoors; the sun produces vitamin D in your skin. So I’ll see you outside!
Did you know?Exercise at least
30 minutes a day
Finished!
Bet you feel good now!
That is also an effect of exercising and sports.
It gives you energy and it helps against stress!
Cooling down
a few tips
COOL DOWN & STRETCH
By stretching your muscles they get rid of acids and waste.
It also helps to keep your muscles flexible to prevent muscle ache.
RECOVER
Give your body some time to recover and give it some rest. Drink and eat to replenish.
This also a good moment to eat proteins for the maintenance and growth of your muscles.
Well done!
