Accoding to Curry Elvis a food online site: These are the necessary ingredients to better energy.
Least-treated whole grains, which serve as a source of proteins, minerals and fiber.
Raw, uncooked, bright and colorful fresh vegetables that form a part of the gyro list serve as a source of antioxidants.

The proteins from milk and yogurt prove to be a part of nutritious meal.
Citrus serve as a source of Vitamin C while berries assist in providing a well balanced diet.

For those who eat as poorly as I did, at times still do, then just changing a few things in your diet can greatly impact how you feel and increase your balance of energy. Adding and taking away some of the fatty foods we eat can also help with slight weight loss. Sometimes that is always a positive.
I totally agree. I know about halfway through each semester, my energy lags because I start getting busier and do not get proper nutrition. It seems way easier to just drive through Del Taco at the end of a long day, rather than coming home and actually cooking.
ReplyDeleteSo recently, my energy had taken a plunge and I made it a point to go stock up on the essentials you named above at Trader Joe's. I realized I had no food at home and had just been relying on a daily dose of two cups of coffee and a burrito at Chronic Taco to survive. So I got lots of precut veggies to just throw in the oven (their sweet potatoes and zuchinni are soooo good), soy yogurt, etc ... and I have been feeling much better and more energetic.
