TruMoo Review

Have you heard of TruMoo? You have probably seen the commercials saying how this sweet, delicious chocolate milk is healthy. Well, we had the opportunity to try out TruMoo with our son and have nothing but good reports.

TruMoo may be tasty, but it also contains several important nutrients and is low fat with low calories. How healthy is one 8-oz cup of TruMoo? One cup contains vitamins A, D and B12, calcium, protein, phosphorous, riboflavin and potassium. Eight essential nutrients for eight ounces of milk. Try this on for size--one cup of TruMoo chocolate milk equals:

• Calcium of 7 cups of broccoli
• Potassium of a small banana
• Vitamin A of 2 baby carrots
• Vitamin D  of 3.5 ounces cooked salmon

In addition, TruMoo chocolate milk has 35% less sugar than the leading chocolate milk! There is no high fructose corn syrup and only 140 calories per serving! TruMoo chocolate milk is fresh from your local dairy and they do not use artificial growth hormones. My son is a chocolate milk-aholic and asks for it all day long and now I do not feel so bad giving him a couple small cups a day! My son can be a picky eater at times so I can count on TruMoo to fill in the empty spots when he barely touches his fruits or veggies. We are now on our fourth gallon since the review (my husband asks for it too!) and I do not think I will go back to any other brand of chocolate milk. With less sugar and so many key nutrients, my son has plenty of energy during the day to learn and explore and is growing big and tall. Being able to serve my son his favorite drink and trust that it is healthy makes this mommy feel great!

Why is it important for your little one to get the calcium needed? Calcium promotes stong bones and growth. Sadly, only 1 in 10 girls and 1 in 4 boys ages 9-13 get enough calcium and 70% of kids do not get the necessary amount of vitamin D which is essential for calcium absorption. Because chocolate milk (and other flavors) taste so great, kids that drink these drink more which means they get more of the necessary key nutrients and calcium than kids that don't. They drink fewer sodas and do not consume any more added sugars or fat than non-milk drinkers.

So go ahead, dump out the sodas, put away the juice for later and give your children the vitamins and minerals they need in a tasty cup of TruMoo chocolate milk. I have found that retail on TruMoo is not much more than regular milk so it is totally worth it! Don't forget to sign up for coupons!
