According to a
recent study, calcium helps prevent the aches and pains associated with Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS). A new tongue-in-cheek TV ad for the
Got Milk? campaign depicts how men, sometimes the targets of monthly mood swings, can also benefit from women drinking more milk. The "
Milk to the Rescue" commercial shows guys hoarding milk from grocery store shelves and delivery trucks. One of the men arrives home with a bag full of milk cartons and a bouquet of roses, and cautiously calls out, "Honey, I'm home." A familiar elevator and waiting room standard called "
Love's Theme"
(iTunes), by Barry White's Love Unlimited Orchestra, plays in the background and a voiceover informs us of the benefits of calcium for "that time of the month."
