Please suggest what food is good to strengthen the muscles?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Food & Exercise: Food alone will not make muscles strong. You should have a mixed diet of fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils, low fat milk products; lean meats if you wish; reduce intake of saturated fats; no tobacco; no more than one drink a day and exercise with increasing intensity for at least 30 minutes/day.
