This is where our body’s need for adequate protein occurs. Carbohydrates (such as potatoes and vegetables), sugars (such as commercial cereals and candy bars), and fats (such as butter and cheese) will not in any significant way aid in the repair of muscle tissues.

Protein is used to repair tissue, and injury.
