If building muscle mass is one of your fitness goals, it’s important to keep your diet in check by avoiding certain food groups. We spoke with HOI’s Registered Dietitian Nutritionist, Reema Kanda, RDN, to get her expertise on which food groups should be avoided while you’re working on building muscle. Q: What are four food groups or categories that should be avoided for muscle building and why? A: It is important to highlight that muscles are made up of more than protein. Approximately 15 to 20 percent is protein, 70 to 75 percent is water, and 5 to 7 percent is fat, glycogen, and minerals. You may likely have heard that extra protein builds more muscle, however it is athletic training combined with protein that builds muscle strength and size. There is an abundance of research from the sports nutrition community that focuses both on resistance training and protein consumption to enhance muscle protein synthesis (MPS) known as muscle building. However, specific research is very limited in exploring foods to avoid in the context of muscle building.
