Health professionals were joined by rising tennis star Tom Farquharson at a conference held at Wimbledon to hear the latest research on the role that milk can play in re-hydration during exercise, fitness training and competitive sport. Hosted by the National Dairy Council (Ireland) and The Dairy Council (Great Britain) the event is part of a three year campaign, ‘Milk It For All It’s Worth’. An objective of the campaign is to raise awareness of the benefits of milk to young athletes.
