Question

Jake fell while hiking and sustained a deep cut on his right calf. Which of the following foods will supply the structural component needed for tissue repair?

Beans, because they contain protein
Pasta, because it contains protein
Fruits, because they contain carbohydrates
Cheese, because it contains carbohydrates

Is it A? Or something else?

Answer 1

Beans, because they contain protein. When it comes to building and repairing, protein is most likely your answer. We know that pasta is not the answer because it is a large source of carbohydrates and most often used for carbo-loading.
