5 FOODS THAT BOOST OUR ENERGY

  5 FOODS THAT BOOST OUR ENERGY

  In your day to day lifestyles, it has become routines and habits to optimal level. But in order to function efficiently and put your body in full functioning capacity,here are 5 foods to try,

1.Honey

This natural sweetener is extremely low on the glycemic index and acts as muscle fuel, thus helping u to replenish the muscles during post exercising. It is literally nature's counterpart to an energy drink that can be added to tea , water or even your yogurt.

2.Banana

One of the most popular and loved energy food, bananas being mostly composed of sugars, can provide a head on energy boost.

3.Nuts

You can find nuts in energy bars or snack packs at your local grocery store for good reason. Almonds, walnuts, cashews, and the like, offer your body a variety of vitamins, minerals, and, most importantly, dietary fat.

Fat helps your body use energy over a longer period of time, which helps keep you from crashing after snacking. So for sustained energy, nuts are your go-to energy booster (provided you don't have a nut allergy). To keep them super healthy, try to eat sprouted, soaked, or raw nuts. Your intestines will thank you.

Keep a can at your desk and have a handful when you're hungry. Walnuts are high in ALA, a type of omega-3 fatty acid; peanuts are high in folate and vitamin E; and almonds have more calcium than any other nut.

4.Spinach

Spinach is a great source of iron which is the main component of energy production in the body—here are all the amazing health benefits of spinach. Add spinach to your morning omelet or smoothie to feel energized all day long.

 

5. Water

I know, it seems like a lame tip, but a lot of women forget to stay hydrated. Your brain legitimately can't work properly if it's not hydrated. So, drink up! My favorite way to drink water (hot or cold) is to add some lemon slices. That way, I get to harness the power of citrus while providing my body and mind with the hydration it needs to stay on point.

Combine these healthy eats with exercise and you've got a power combo. Stretch, walk, run, or do yoga—every day. Do this consistently and you'll feel more energized, with a clearer mind and body.
