00:00Ever feel like your muscles are slipping away faster than you can, say, work out?
00:05After 60, age-related muscle loss, called sarcopenia, can steal your strength, balance, and independence.
00:13But what if I told you that six simple foods could help you rebuild muscle, regain energy, and fight back against sarcopenia starting today?
00:23Stick around, because food number one packs more muscle-building power than you might expect.
00:301. Eggs. Eggs are the classic protein powerhouse.
00:34Each one delivers about 6 grams of high-quality protein, plus all 9 essential amino acids, including leucine, the key trigger for muscle protein synthesis.
00:46For seniors, that means faster repair and growth of muscle fibers.
00:50Scramble them, boil them, or enjoy them in an omelet with veggies for a breakfast that says, I got this.
00:57Micro-hook. Later, I'll show you a twist on deviled eggs that sneaks in extra vitamin D, vital for bone and muscle health.
01:082. Salmon-rich in omega-3 fatty acids.
01:12Salmon does more than fill you up.
01:14It directly combats inflammation in aging muscles.
01:17Studies show omega-3s boost the muscle-building response to protein, making your workouts more effective.
01:25Plus, a 3-ounce filet delivers 22 grams of protein and a hefty dose of vitamin D.
01:32Tip. Grill or bake with a squeeze of lemon and fresh herbs for a heart-healthy, muscle-friendly dinner.
01:403. Greek yogurt.
01:43You might think all yogurt is created equal, but Greek yogurt has double the protein of regular varieties, up to 20 grams per serving.
01:52It's also packed with calcium and probiotics, supporting bone strength and gut health, which in turn helps your body absorb nutrients better.
02:01Blend it into smoothies, or top it with berries, and a sprinkle of nuts for a post-workout snack.
02:08Micro-hook.
02:09Coming up, food number 4 is plant-based, but packs as much muscle-fueling punch as meat.
02:174. Lentils.
02:19Lentils are the MVP of plant proteins, with 18 grams of protein per cooked cup, plus a fiber boost to stabilize blood sugar.
02:27They deliver iron and magnesium, minerals that many seniors lack but need for optimal muscle function.
02:34Add lentils to soups, stews, or toss them in a salad with fresh greens and a drizzle of olive oil.
02:425. Quinoa.
02:44Often called a supergrain, quinoa is actually a seed, and it eses one of the rare plant foods that eses a complete protein, offering all 9 essential amino acids.
02:57With 8 grams of protein per cooked cup, and loads of B vitamins and magnesium, quinoa supports energy production and muscle repair.
03:07Swap it for rice at dinner, or stir it into a warm breakfast porridge with cinnamon and fruit.
03:136. Cottage Cheese.
03:15Here's a snack hack for strong seniors.
03:18Cottage Cheese.
03:20A 1-cup serving packs.
03:2228 grams of casein protein.
03:25A slow-digesting protein that feeds your muscles over hours.
03:29Perfect for preventing overnight muscle breakdown.
03:33Mix in pineapple or peaches for natural sweetness, and a hit of vitamin C.
03:38Want to supercharge your muscle gains?
03:40Pair cottage cheese with a handful of almonds for extra healthy fats, and crunch.
03:47Quick recap.
03:49Eggs.
03:50Leucine rich.
03:51Complete protein.
03:52Salmon.
03:53Omega-3s to reduce muscle inflammation.
03:56Greek yogurt.
03:57High protein.
03:58Plus probiotics for nutrient absorption.
04:01Lentils.
04:01Plant protein.
04:03Plus fiber.
04:04Plus minerals.
04:05Quinoa.
04:06Complete plant protein.
04:07Plus B vitamins.
04:08Cottage cheese.
04:09Slow-release casein protein.
04:13Building muscle after 60 doesn't mean you need heavy weights or expensive supplements.
04:18It starts with smart food choices that fuel repair, reduce inflammation, and keep you strong.
04:25Your next steps.
04:26Add an extra egg to breakfast two mornings this week.
04:30Swap one red meat meal for salmon or lentils.
04:33Snack on Greek yogurt or cottage cheese instead of processed treats.
04:38Replace white rice or pasta with quinoa at one meal.
04:43With consistent protein power and the right nutrients, you'll start feeling stronger and more confident in just weeks.
