WHY? Popeye didn’t eat tins of the green stuff for nothing:spinach, rocket,bitterleaf and watercress are high in magnesium, folicid and iron, which is needed to make red blood cells to carry oxygen around the body, boosting energy.Green leafy vegetables have a very low sugar content, which has.. A POSITIVE EFFECT ON BLOOD SUGAR AND SEROTONIN.
Note: They are best eaten raw in salads as cooked iron can be more difficult for the body to absorb.
*HERBAL TEA.
WHY.You might think you need a mug of the black stuff to kick-start your energy levels, but fruit tea is much more effective.Coffee and ordinary black tea is a stimulant that will unsettle your blood sugar and your energy level, which is very essentials for the brain cells.Opting for a fruit or herbal alternative can help to keep your blood-sugar levels balanced, which is essential for sustain energy for the brain, needed in decision making as the brain is most active when your body is at it’s best.
3*WATER
WHY ?.Your cells receive nutrients for energy less efficiently when you’re dehydrated, and your body can’t properly expend heat through sweating, leading to reduced energy levels both to the body and the brain releasing hormones
HOW MUCH. It depends on your size but on the average 6 to 8 cups daily.Foe example a slender lady working in an office may only need 1.5 litres, while a well- built man who works out may need two litres.Any fluid counts-even tea and coffee.Look at the colour of your urine:IF IT’S A LIGHT YELLOW, YOU’RE DRINKING ENOUGH, BUT IF IT’S DARKER, YOU need to top up your fluid intake
