Nestl MiloMilo is an Australian-made milk product with chocolate and malt, produced by Nestl. It is added to hot or cold milk to give it a chocolate flavour and extra texture. When combined with cold milk, it retains the gritty texture of raw Milo. When combined with hot milk, it creates a layer of congealed milo and milk floating on top of the cup which some drinkers enjoy more. Nutritional Information Milo is high in energy, with 1760kJ per 100g. It is therefore marketed as the "Energy Food Drink". It also has a low Glycaemic Index (GI): "33 made with whole milk, 36 made with reduced fat milk" (The Wikipedia article on Glycaemic Index rates "less than 55" as low GI). This lets the energy Milo provides be released slowly throughout the day. The Milo website http://www.nestle.com/Our_Brands/Beverages/Milo/ states that "It is high in calcium, iron and vitamin B1, 2, 6, 12." History Milo has been produced at Nestl's plant in Smithtown, New South Wales, Australia since its original conception in 1934. It was created that year, after heavy research led by Thomas Mayne. The name derives from the famous Greek athlete Milo of Croton, after his legendary strength. See also External links Sources * Milo Nutritional Information
