Zam Jones is energizing her team and fans as a freshman guard for North Carolina State.

She’s already proving that milk’s got game. As one of the standout players for NC State’s women’s basketball team, Zam is a rising star you’ll want to keep your eye on.

“In North Carolina, we know the secret to staying energized on the court: real dairy milk,” said Jones. “Milk’s high-quality protein and natural electrolytes keep me energized and hydrated. We call it a ‘ZAM DUNK!’”

Real milk is the assist Zam and everyone else can use for their goals.

Whether you’re competing on the court, working out, or taking a shot at your homework, milk provides the protein you need for peak performance. Every 8 oz glass of milk provides 8 grams of complete, high-quality protein to help you stay strong, energized, and focused. Like Zam, you can fuel your own game with real milk. Milk provides the protein you need to stay energized and focused throughout the day. You can turn to milk’s natural nutrients to keep you energized and ready to take on any challenge.

Milk’s high-performance protein can’t be matched by most alternative beverages. Real milk provides complete, high-quality protein whereas most plant-based proteins are incomplete. Compared to other sports drinks, milk is a nutritional bargain, providing complete, high-performance protein at approximately 25 cents per 8-ounce glass. With real milk, you’re getting high-performance protein that other sports drinks just can’t match.

And milk is one of the best beverages for hydration. Milk’s natural electrolytes, carbohydrates, and high-quality protein make it more effective at improving hydration status, keeping you hydrated longer than water and sports drinks.

For those who are lactose-sensitive, choose lactose-free milk to help you stay hydrated. Lactose-free milk is real milk, just without lactose that may cause discomfort. You can choose milk for your game plan to help you stay hydrated and boost performance.

Are you lactose intolerant? No problem. Try lactose-free milk. It’s real milk just without lactose that may cause discomfort. There are many options on the market oﬀering 8 grams of protein or more per serving. Everyone can add milk to their game plan.
