5 Ways To Get More Energy From Your Diet: ✨ So

5 Ways To Get More Energy From Your Diet: ✨

So lately I’ve been talking about the following statement a lot at my public speaking events.

You deserve to get a little selfish when it comes to your food.

Every time you eat, you should be asking the question:

“What’s in it for me?”

Personally, if I’m going to be eating 2-3 times a day - and going to the effort of sourcing, preparing, buying that food - then I would wanna be damn sure that whatever I’m eating is going to be working for me. 😁

Food is responsible for energy.

It’s our get up and go.

And here are 5 ways you can make it work for you:

1. PRIORITISE PROTEIN. It keeps you full, makes you feel strong and stops the sugar cravings. Win win.

2. ADD FATS FOR ENERGY. Fats burn 4 times (that’s FOUR TIMES 🔥) more efficiently than sugar for energy. One unit of sugar = one unit of energy. One unit of fats is four times that. Simple maths.

3. GET COLOUR. Brightly coloured veg and fruits of all sorts fuel your gut bacteria which in turn pump out energy vitamins for your body.

4. DON’T OVEREAT. Give your body just enough that you’re satisfied but not full and then let it do it’s job. And only eat when you’re hungry. More food does not always equal more energy 😉

5. TIME YOUR CARBS. In most cases, eating your carbs later in the day is actually better for your body’s energy production system because you spend most of the day burning fat for fuel (four times remember) and then top up any carbs you need at the end.
(Sounds confusing, but it’s only because you’ve been conditioned that cereal and toast are great breakfast foods 🤦‍♀️)

Sometimes nutrition is actually pretty simple and a few small tweaks can yield a pretty big energy return.

And I don’t know anyone who doesn’t want more of that. ☺️

You?

My face when you realise that after 40 there are only 4 things that matter when it comes to physical fitness (and FYI it’s not 90 mins of cardio and salads anymore):

💪🏻 Strength training
💪🏻 Adequate protein
💪🏻 Sleep
💪🏻 Balanced hormones
