The Athlete's Guide to Healthy Grains

“This grain is high in an antioxidant called rutin, which helps fight off inflammation produced from training,” says Spence. It also stimulates the production of collagen, a protein that’s specifically meant to facilitate skin, bone, and connective tissue repair, she says. Try buckwheat groats in lieu of cereal in the morning, or slip some into your favorite soup or chili recipe instead of pasta or rice.
