Cottage Cheese and Pineapple for Post-Workout Recovery

After a workout, your muscles need protein to repair and carbs to refill energy.

Cottage cheese has a special protein called casein that helps muscles over several hours.

Pineapple gives quick carbs and has a substance called bromelain that might help reduce soreness.

Together, they make a tasty and easy snack.

But remember, it's not a magic fix—you still need rest and other good foods to help your muscles recover.

Also, if you're allergic to dairy or don't digest lactose well, you might need to choose different foods.

Always check labels for added sugars and salt.

Enjoy your snack within a couple of hours after exercising!
