在精疲力竭的训练过后,你的肌肉往往会处于高度紧绷的状态,并产生一定的毒素。当你在睡眠状态下,身体将进入修复模式,食谱中的牛肉以及藜麦将为你提供大量的蛋白质以及氨基酸帮助你快速修复身体的劳损。

牛肉中所蕴含的不饱和脂肪酸以及橄榄油中的油酸还将帮助你维持细胞的健康活力并且抵御外来病菌的侵害。

Post workout, your muscles are under high-stress and toxins are released in your body. As you sleep, your body starts to repair these muscles and requires amino acids, a basic type of protein. This is where the beef and quinoa in this recipe come into play. Unsaturated fatty acid from the beef and oleic acid in the olive oil help to strengthen your cell walls and fight off free radicals and toxins.
