Spinach
Spinach is a rich source of glutamine which is an amino acid that helps to boost muscle strength, size, and even your metabolic rate. Plus, spinach has some really complex-sounding but useful ingredients like beta ecdysterone and octacosanol that help your muscles better absorb proteins.
Avocado
Avocado contains a boatload of healthy, monounsaturated fats which help to lower cholesterol and promote boosts in testosterone and growth hormone production. Plus, it contains calcium and magnesium which play super important roles in regulating muscle function and fluid balance.
Beet
Apparently, drinking a liter of beetroot juice for a week doubles the amounts of nitrates in your blood, which causes the muscles to use oxygen and perform more efficiently.
Carrots

A 2018 review of 10 articles reports that dietary carrot intake was associated with a reduced risk of breast cancer.
Garlic
