5 Energy Boosting Foods to Include in Your Diet

June 22, 2019

It could be a stressful job, not getting enough sleep, a busy social calendar, the 20 extra curricular activities your kids are participating in or just finding the energy to make it to the gym, at some time or another, we’ve all felt we could use A LOT more energy in our day.

A great place to start when it comes to not feeling like you have enough energy is to take a close look at your diet. The reason why you have low energy could be because you are lacking certain nutrients or macronutrients your body is craving.

For example, simply not eating enough carbs during the day can often lead to feelings of fatigue and lack of energy in itself. However, you want to make sure they are the right type of carbs and not just any ol’ carbohydrates like shoving a donut in your mouth when you are feeling tired. Also, healthy fats are also super important for optimum brain function. If your brain is lacking, this could require more energy from your body to fuel it properly which can then, in turn, make the rest of your body feel tired.

Try adding more of these 7 foods into your diet and see if you notice a change in your energy levels.
