B Correct answer

Chocolate milk provides an ideal ratio of carbohydrates to protein, which helps to quickly replenish glycogen stores and repair muscles after a workout. Other options like high fat or high fiber are not ideal immediately post-exercise because they slow down digestion. This makes chocolate milk a highly effective and popular recovery drink.
