5 Tricks To Fight Fatigue
Do you sometimes get all of a sudden, a feeling of tiredness? Whether it is in the morning when you wake up, in the afternoon right after lunch, or before working out… very often those are the moments we end up eating unhealthy foods thinking we will get a boost of energy (which does not happen most of the times). The trick to end fatigue is to be able to take advantage of every minute of your routine to take care of your body with superfoods along the day. With these 5 small changes you will notice a difference and fatigue will no longer be part of your daily life:
Are you more of a coffee or tea drinker? Independently of your preference Iswari has the solution for you. As much as possible avoid getting coffee and cake for breakfast. Refined sugars will create a glycaemic pic spiking up your production of insulin. In turn the high levels of insulin will lower your blood glucose levels too quickly which will produce a sensation of tiredness and hunger. The solution for your mornings? Drink a powerful green tea such as the Matcha from Iswari, or if you prefer our coffee substitute: a mix of cacao, coconut sugar and Maca (our famous Macaccino). Both will provide you with a surge of long lasting energy with a satiating effect.
During lunch the best way to fight fatigue is by providing our body with healthy and satiating foods. Pick the green vegetables of the season and high-quality proteins. But if you feel that you are having a particularly difficult day try adding to your lunch a bit of spirulina (you can mix it in for instance with your salad seasoning or within your soup bowl). Spirulina became famous worldwide when NASA started to use this superfood as a supplement for astronauts. These spiral shaped algae provide a unique and complete blend of nutrients. If it works for astronauts why wouldn’t it work for you?
When working can you feel moments of energy deeps? Our advice is to try Maca. This powerful hormone balancer and adaptogen is also an energy booster. You can take Maca powder by mixing it in a smoothie or in a healthy truffles recipe.
Do you feel a lack of energy before your work out? Guarana is the solution to your problem. It is a powerful natural energizer which will provide you with much more vitality after its consumption. You will notice the difference on your physical performance.
Athletes from around the worlds already surrendered to Açaí. This Brazilian fruit has nothing less than 16 amino acids, it is rich in complex carbohydrates and provides a lot of energy following physical exercise. You should also try If you don’t exercise. An Açaí bowl is an excellent breakfast or afternoon snack.
Nevertheless, it is important to specify that superfoods don’t do miracles. There is no doubt that the best way to fight fatigue is… resting. Try to sleep as many hours as your body needs at night, face life calmly, meditate, practice yoga or exercise, avoid stressful situations and eat a healthy and balanced diet. This should be the starting point, but as we know, very often for one reason or another, we can’t manage to rest as much time as we would like or need… superfoods are the perfect allies to help us enjoy the days to the fullest and say goodbye to fatigue!
