In terms of eating for energy, some foods should be included in your diet on a daily basis. They help to keep your energy levels up throughout the day because they provide you with the required nutrients.
Nuts
Eating raw, unsalted nuts, like almonds, gives you a boost of energy when you need it most without resulting in a crash later on. If possible, soak them overnight to release the most benefit. The soaking starts the germination process, releasing more nutrients and allowing the body to digest them more easily.
Mushrooms
A cup of mushrooms will boost the iron levels in your body. Iron is essential for transporting oxygen and without oxygen supply to organs, you may feel listless and fatigued.
Spinach
Spinach is high in iron, potassium, and magnesium. Magnesium is important for energy and with potassium, plays a major role in the regulation of nerve and muscle function as well as digestion.
Greek Yoghurt
Adding Greek yogurt to your breakfast gives you protein, a boost of calcium and a dose of probiotics. The probiotics keep your gut healthy, boost your digestion and allow you to get the most out of the food you eat.
Sweet Potatoes
Sweet potatoes are the great source of carbs and contain many nutrients, such as potassium, magnesium, iron, vitamin D, and vitamin C. They are very versatile and can be mashed, grilled, roasted or steamed. They can help to boost your energy levels and keep you from feeling fatigued.
