While most of us suffer from fatigue some of the time, there are millions who suffer from it all of the time. Exhaustion is one of the most common complaints brought to doctors.
Fortunately, one of the best ways to fight fatigue is with energy-boosting foods. Whether you’re in need of a quick energy boost or sustained, long-lasting fuel, here are the foods that will do the job.
Quick Energy Boosters:
The quickest energy is from carbohydrates. That’s the body’s first preferences for energy. Did you ever hear about carbohydrate loading? That’s what marathon runners do when they run a long race, they carb load. The reason they do that is because your body’s first preference for fuel is from stored carbohydrate, and you store carbohydrate as glycogen in your muscles and your liver. For quick energy, you want to have glycogen stored and that comes from things like:
Vegetables Whole-grain Cereals 100-percent fruit juice Dried fruit Fresh fruit
If you’re really hungry and you want some quick energy, there’s no better choice than eating some fruit. Rather than drinking a sugary drink, eat a piece of fruit. You’re going to get your carbohydrates and you’re also going to get your fiber and vitamins and minerals.
Sustained Energy Boosters: A balance of nutrients is really what’s going to give you sustained energy because your body digests protein, fats and carbohydrates differently. In other words, you can eat them all at the same time but they are all going to be processed differently. Carbohydrates start being digested in your mouth, protein starts in your stomach and fat doesn’t start until it reaches your intestines. That’s why foods that are combinations of nutrients give you sustained energy." Some good combinations choices include:
Nuts Whole-grain pasta Turkey or peanut butter on whole-grain bread
