A combination of milk, Greek yogurt, and peanut or almond butter jacks up the protein to 34 grams, making this beverage more of a post-recovery meal than snack. Banana supplies sweetness and contributes to the eight grams of fiber—which is nearly 35% of what you need for the day.
Unsweetened cocoa powder provides powerful antioxidants that head off cell damage linked to heart disease and cancer.
Choose alkaline-free cocoa powder for the highest levels of protective com- pounds. As part of a balanced, low-fat eating plan, a regular dose of cocoa powder can raise HDL (good cholesterol) and lower total blood cholesterol levels, helping to keep clear the blood vessels that supply your muscles, heart, and brain.
