NIU STEAM in Partnership with Midwest Dairy
Teenagers and young adults often drink Gatorade and similar recovery drinks after a workout. Join us to learn how and why something as simple as chocolate milk provides our bodies with the nutrients it needs after exercise.
This fast-paced, 60-minute webinar provides educators with tools and resources, including hands-on, low-prep lessons that work.
This lesson will:
Apply phenomena-based learning, experimental design and information literacy while it dives into the benefits of chocolate milk as an exercise recovery drink.
Empower students’ curiosity and engagement as they learn biology, chemistry and human physiology.
Demonstrate a direct link between macromolecules, feedback loops, metabolic energy and the nutrients that athletes consume.
