Question Of The Week 10.6: What Should We Be Eating To Be Healthy And Vibrant?

If you lose energy during the day and are constantly exhausted, it is likely that something is wrong with your food. For some people, getting up early is a way of life, but for others, it may be a complete nightmare. And regardless of which of these two groups we belong to, many of us are forced to rise early in the morning owing to unforeseen events (work life, children, etc.).

Rather than making this obligation a source of suffering for ourselves, we should consider how we may better it. Because getting an energized start to the day may not be as difficult as you think. Here are some natural foods that will help you wake up in the morning feeling energized.

Drink lots of water!

The benefits of drinking water are well known to all of us. Drink at least 2 liters of water per day to ensure that you remain robust and vigorous at all times. Of course, you don't have to be thirsty in order to drink water! Take a sip of water whenever the thought occurs to you.

Use a water-filled flask in front of your eyes and a waist bag designed to allow you to sip water more easily while exercising to help you maintain a healthy water intake balance.

"I tend to forget to drink water," says the author. "I forget to drink water," "I don't remember to drink water," "I don't think about drinking water." In case you're one of those folks who constantly complains, there are reminder apps that you may install on your smartphone.

Consume more high-fiber foods!

The consumption of fiber on a regular basis is one of our bodies' most important requirements. Fiber protects against heart disease and helps to lower dangerous cholesterol levels!

It is vital to consume adequate fiber to ensure that your intestines are able to perform their functions effectively. Even cereal bars are available for purchase if you so choose to satiate your sweet cravings.

Ensure that your fruits and veggies are free of contaminants

Another component of our health that we should take into consideration is the cleanliness of the meals that we eat and drink. Every minute of our lives, our personal hygiene has an impact on our overall well-being.

Before consuming the vegetables and fruits that we have carefully selected based on their appearance, we must clean them in order for them to deliver the greatest amount of benefit to our bodies possible. If we don't do this, it may end up doing more harm than good to our bodies.

When it comes to preparing salads, extra caution must be exercised. Many germs and pests can be detected in vegetables that are cultivated in the soil. Vegetables such as spinach can become contaminated even after being washed numerous times. Make sure you go over everything again and again until you understand it.

Reduce your use of processed foods!

One of the reasons why the junk food we eat is detrimental for us is that it contains an excessive amount of sugar and fat.

Our wallets and our health are both affected by these containers, which include many hazardous colorants to make them appear more enticing as well as unhealthy preservatives to extend their shelf life, which are harmful to both. Regular use has various detrimental impacts on our bodies, including increased hunger and quick weight gain, among other things.

Because these meals are deficient in vitamins and minerals, you should avoid consuming them on a regular basis, and you should establish personal boundaries.

Fruits can supply you with the energy you need to get through the day

In addition to providing immediate energy, apples and bananas also have a long-lasting feeling of satiety to them! Grapefruit and oranges have high levels of vitamin C. Vitamin C boosts our immune system and lowers our risk of becoming sick by functioning as an energy reserve for our body. Vitamin C is also beneficial for our skin.

How about peeling an orange and placing it by your nightstand when you're feeling drained in the winter?

Carbonated beverages must be avoided at all costs!

Acidic beverages can discolor your teeth and gums over time, causing you to lose sight of your dazzling whites as a result. Coca-cola and soda are heavy in sugar and can have negative effects on many parts of the body, from the digestive system to osteoporosis and kidney disease, among other things.

Extra sugar consumption is something you should avoid if your goal is to maintain a healthy lifestyle. If you don't want to increase your diabetes risk, you should stay away from these beverages.

Your deadliest adversaries are alcoholic beverages and tobacco products

We are all aware of how addictive alcoholic beverages and cigarettes can be! If you engage in such habits, you should stop them immediately before they have a negative influence on your health over time.

After taking alcohol, it becomes increasingly difficult to keep control. It is possible that you and those around you will face terrible consequences. Overconsumption of alcoholic beverages increases the risk of stomach, laryngeal, and esophageal cancer.

In the long run, smoking will cause cataracts in your eyes as well as inflammation in your vocal cords and larynx, osteoporosis, and vascular occlusive disease.



Thanks for reading, Have a great day!

Great point @Kirlos, I drink a lot of water once I wake up in the morning and I feel energized throughout the day. Water is important, and so are other classes of food.

For the spinach and other vegetables, I make sure to rinse with cold water thrice and also wash with hot water to remove any contaminated particles in order to maintain a hygienic lifestyle. Thank you for sharing.

Water is esssential and far better for you than carbonated drinks. Watching that your veggies haven’t been sprayed with pesiticides is more difficult, so growing your own is the answer. Well formatted post. Thank you for participating in the EcoTrain’s QOTW
