Summer grilling season is in full effect. Everyone is rocking the barbecue with steaks and burgers. I love using the barbecue, not only does the food taste great straight off the grill, it’s a great way to mingle. It gets me cooking outside (which is fantastic) and everyone loves sitting on a patio and having a party. But what often gets lost in red meat heaven is how great fish tastes coming off the grill.

Protein is a given for optimizing muscle recovery, but what else can we do? Nutritional support for working muscles requires an array of nutrients. Include some of these sweet, juicy antioxidant packed berries – these are recovery powerhouses. Antioxidants not only fight disease, but are also beneficial to exercising individuals by helping to reduce exercise-induced muscle damage and promoting post-exercise recovery by neutralizing free radicals (the harmful substances produced in masses when you exercise intensely).
