Building healthy muscles is the prime concern for most guys, and the reason behind it is quite simple. Apart from making you look way more handsome, it is also a sign of a healthy body. Now let’s be practical. How many girls do you think would fall for a lean and skinny guy or a big fat fellow over a well built muscular dude? So, here are 6 super foods which will help you burn the excess body fats (if you have any) and build up those awesome muscles.

1. Eggs

Eggs are very rich in proteins. The yolk itself contains more than half the protein, vitamins A, D, E, and cholesterol. It helps to increase your testosterone level. Please note that dietary cholesterol isn’t the same as blood cholesterol, and they do not mix. If you have a high blood cholesterol level, take effort to reduce your body fat rather than throwing away the highly nutritious yolk.

2. Berries

Cranberries, raspberries, blueberries, blackberries are all excellent antioxidants and prevent cancer, heart as well as eye diseases. Add a few fresh or frozen berries to your oat meal and have it for breakfast.

3. Nuts

Almost all nuts (almond, walnut, cashew, hazelnut, peanut, etc.) have high nutrition value and are perfect for skinny people who want to gain weight. Nuts contain unsaturated fats, fibers, protein, vitamin E, zinc, magnesium, potassium and several other such nutrients which are great for muscle development.
