TASTY WAYS TO KEEP MUSCLES STRONG

Cheese

HELPS BUILD AND REPAIR

Varieties like Swiss, provolone, cheddar and Muenster are high in leucine, an amino acid that plays an essential role in building and repairing muscle. Italian researchers found that people with age-related muscle loss (a condition called sarcopenia) who raised their dietary leucine intake were able to stop or slow the progress of the condition and strengthen their muscles.

Chicken ASSISTS RECOVERY

Throw some chicken on the grill (or however you like to cook it) to support post-exercise muscle recovery. Chicken is rich in glutamine, an amino acid essential for the formation of the protein your body needs to build muscle. It's particularly useful for helping muscles recover from physical activity; Canadian researchers found glutamine significantly reduced soreness at 24, 48 and 72 hours after a workout.
