A regular breakfast consisting of oatmeal, an omelet and a glass of orange juice will help you not only wake up, but also keep your morning vigor for a fairly long period of time.In one of the posts, we have already listed some products that can be compared with coffee in terms of their effect on the body. This time I found another longer list.
So, under the item number 1 in our list is, as always, chocolate. Why? Well, besides the fact that it is delicious, it contains quite a lot of sugar and is an impetus for the production of endorphins — this is quite enough to get an energy boost for a couple of hours, if not longer. I think that everyone remembers the rule "Before the exam it is better to eat a chocolate bar or drink strong and sweet tea"?
2. Cold water. Dehydration is one of the causes of fatigue. Drink plenty of water, especially in the morning, and you will be happy. At least physically you will feel much better. Especially if you drink in the morning just getting out of bed at least a glass of water.
3. Berries. Any berry is good and healthy. And even better, if it's raspberries, blueberries and strawberries. These berries are full of natural stimulants!
4. Orange juice. Citrus fruits are a godsend for the eternally sleeping! The juice itself is full of vitamin C, which fills the body with energy, and the smell of orange, lime and lemon stimulates brain activity. This is especially true in winter, a cold is in the air. Lemon and lime are also suitable, but their juice is better to use with a lot of sugar and slightly diluted with water. Tested on my own experience.
5. Something cold. I have already written about cold water, but any cold drink is suitable here, soda, juice, etc. Cold is a shock to the whole body, which gets a shake and starts working at full capacity.
6. Meat. The proteins that are contained in meat are slowly processed, respectively, energy is released more slowly, but it is enough for a longer time. Of course, you can't eat a piece of meat instead of coffee and wake up immediately, but your energy supply will be replenished. The same applies to fish. If there is a difficult day ahead, it is better to eat a piece of chicken or fish than vermicelli or bread.
7. Nuts. They are also very nutritious and will help you recharge your batteries. But you shouldn't get carried away with them either, especially at night, because the remnants of unprocessed energy are deposited, alas, not in the brain, but in other parts of the body. Problematic ones.
8. Green tea. Well, everything is clear here, because any tea contains caffeine. And green tea is also the most useful. If you drink a cup of tea, I will be awake much longer than after a cup of coffee. Only if you feel invigorated almost immediately after coffee, then the effect of tea does not come so quickly.
9. Apples. Apples contain boron, which increases the alertness of the body. That is, attention to detail increases and you will not miss the next "-" in the equation. Plus, there are many other useful substances in apples, so chew on your health (it's also useful for teeth).
10. Oatmeal. It is full of complex carbohydrates and fiber. And if you add something sweet to it, you will get a wonderful energy breakfast.
11. Bananas. Bananas contain a lot of sugar, natural sugar, which is absorbed by the body much better.
12. Yogurt. It's all about magnesium — a wonderful source of long-lasting energy. Just remember that there is much more sugar in yoghurts with fillers than it seems.
13. Eggs. Eggs can generally be attributed to super food. They are full of proteins, vitamins and minerals (leucine among them), which are necessary for the body to work properly and recover after exercise. In addition, you will not get tired so quickly.
So, the list contains quite affordable and useful products. I see no reason to eat not only delicious, but also with benefits for the body. Of course, they will not replace a fragrant cup of coffee, but you can not always afford to drink it.
