1. Wanna Curdle? Go For Cottage Cheese
Whether you’re cutting, maintaining your shape or building muscle, protein is a vital nutrient in your diet.
Cottage cheese is a fantastic choice for your post workout meal because it’s loaded with casein protein and high calcium, which your body will digest slowly. Cottage cheese will help you with muscle growth and maintenance through the night. Try the low-fat type to ensure you’re getting the most out of this great protein source.
