Sadik Hadzovic takes down a glass of breast milk to begin his morning.

Bodybuilders all around the world have their own different methods of creating the best physique possible. This can come in and out of the gym. On Wednesday, Men’s Physique competitor Sadik Hadzovic shared a video that many found quite interesting and controversial. The video that he posted on his Instagram contained him drinking breast milk in the morning to get him going.

In 2019, Hadzovic competed in the Arnold Sports Festival and decided to take some time off after a sixth-place finish. Two and a half years later, Hadzovic began sharing physique updates and preparing fans for his return. This came during the 2022 Pittsburgh Pro, where he secured first place in the Men’s Physique division.

Hadzovic also finished third at the New York Pro and was looking ready to make a statement at the Mr. Olympia but was forced to withdraw from the event.

Sadik Hadzovic Drinks Breast Milk

Sadik Hadzovic poured himself a glass of breast milk in his kitchen to begin his day. He shared a video on Instagram explaining its benefit.

“We’re gonna start off our day with a cup of breast milk. To get this was like $5 an ounce on the black market.”

Now, while the black market comment is more than likely a joke (as his wife who just had a baby commented on the post about her husband being a bodybuilder), there still are some questions that we may have. One question might be, how does breast milk taste? Hadzovic went into detail on this as well.

”Tastes mad good. Tastes like the bottom of the cereal like once you get all the sugar and stuff. The last of the milk in the cereal. And that’ll be enough to get me going today.”

Now none of us at Generation Iron can confirm or deny if this statement is true, because as much as we love our cereal, we have not tried breast milk, but we will take Sadik’s word for it.

Is Drinking Breast Milk Healthy?

There were a few comments on the post saying that drinking breast milk is unhealthy, but is it? Well, it has been found that human breast milk (HBM) very well may be one the most important functional food known, hence the reason we feed it to our newborns so they can grow big and strong. Breast milk is a dynamic food with both nutritional and health benefits, typically used for infants.

It is worth noting that human milk also has some powerful immunological properties, which can help protect consumers from respiratory diseases, middle ear infections, and gastro-intestinal diseases.

That being said, it appears that breast milk could be good for bodybuilding, hence the reason Sadik does it. Now, while the thought process is that drinking breast milk can help build muscle mass, there is a lack of scientific evidence to support this claim in adults.

Do you drink breast milk currently? Let us know in the comments below. Also, be sure to follow Generation Iron on FacebookTwitter, and Instagram.
