5 Energy Giving Foods You Can Eat In The Morning Instead Of Bread And Tea

EDITOR’S PICK: 

When we sleep at night, our bodies go through a number of processes, including metabolic activities, which ensure that the food we eat before going to bed is properly digested. These processes often occur while we are in REM (rapid eye movement) sleep. This indicates that if a person wakes up after a protracted period of time spent sleeping in a state that induces fasting, the body will require a fresh supply of food for energy.

This is where breakfast comes into play; breakfast is traditionally thought of as the first meal of the day and is generally seen as the most important meal of the day. A nutritious breakfast can significantly aid to maintain the body’s metabolism and supply the body with all of the energy it requires. This is in addition to the fact that a healthy breakfast can have an effect on how the body functions.

In this article on EKO HOT BLOG, we would be looking at some energy giving foods that you should eat rather than bread and tea as breakfast.

1. Bananas

Bananas are widely regarded as one of the world’s tastiest and healthiest fruits. Due to the quantity of energy that they provide, bananas may easily be included into a variety of breakfast recipes. They include an abundance of fiber, which slows down the absorption of sugar, as well as other nutrients that feed the body with what may feel like an endless supply of energy.

2. Apples and strawberries

It is a common proverb that eating an apple a day would keep the doctor away. The excellent nutrient profile that apples provide is the reason for this common proverb.

They contain a lot of fiber, which is important since it helps the body meet its requirements for energy. In this regard, strawberries are also very beneficial since they contain phenols, which are anti-oxidants that contribute to the production of energy at the cellular level.

3. Fish and beef liver

Proteins and B-vitamins are found in fish, and these nutrients are known to assist the body maintain its energy levels throughout the day.

Fish with a high omega-3 fatty acid content, such salmon and sardines, have been shown to boost brain function and reduce inflammation in the body, both of which can be contributing factors in fatigue for some individuals. The vitamin B-12 found in beef liver helps to maintain the body’s energy levels stable and full.

5. Yams, sweet potatoes, and vegetables with dark leafy greens

Yams and sweet potatoes both include a lot of carbs, but sweet potatoes contain an especially high amount of fiber. This serves to slow down the process by which the body absorbs the food that is eaten, which results in an increase in overall energy levels. Because of their high vitamin content and the tendency to make people feel more satisfied after eating them, dark leafy greens like spinach and kale are great candidates for inclusion in breakfast meals.

6. Eggs

Eggs have a high protein content, which is necessary for sustained energy, making it one of the healthiest foods you can add to your breakfast meals.
