Protein is a fundamental building block of the body, essential for the growth and repair of tissues, including bones. It provides the necessary amino acids for collagen synthesis, which gives bones their strength and flexibility. Foods rich in protein include meat, fish, eggs, dairy products, legumes, and nuts. Lean meats such as chicken and turkey, as well as plant-based options like lentils and quinoa, are excellent sources of protein.
