9. Salmon
Salmon contains both high-quality protein and the long-chain omega-3 fats like EPA and DHA. These omega-3 fatty acids are most well known for their ability to improve heart health, but they also inhibit muscle breakdown while increasing the anabolic capacity of amino acids. If you don’t like eating fish, then make sure to take a fish oil supplement to reap these benefits. [$10 for 12oz; amazon.com]
