Including invigorating foods in your diet can help you counteract some of the damaging effects of high temperatures, including fatigue.
The following foods are among the best when it comes to restore energy levels naturally and healthy:
Spinach
Perfect for your smoothies this summer, this green leafy vegetable is rich in iron and contains about 20 percent of the recommended daily amount of fiber. It also provides vitamins that stimulate the immune system (vitamins C and E) and minerals such as calcium, magnesium, zinc and selenium.
Watermelon
Summer wouldn't be the same without this refreshing fruit. In addition to helping prevent dehydration, it is low in calories. Nor should we forget that it protects eye health and reduces inflammation thanks to its vitamin A content. You can eat it fresh, add it to a salad or a smoothie ... and even grill it.
Lemon
Rich in vitamin C, lemon strengthens the immune system, promotes the proper functioning of the digestive system, and can help you lose weight. When consuming it, one of the best options is lemon water. Use this drink to get a boost in the morning and for the rest of the day to replace high calorie sodas. It will do wonders for your silhouette and your energy levels this vacation.
Avocado
Considered as one of the most nutrient-dense foods on the planet, the avocado could not be missing from this list. The most remarkable thing is its content of monounsaturated fats, which can reduce and stabilize blood sugar. In addition, it is loaded with vitamins K and C, folate, fiber and omega 3 fatty acids, nutrients that are beneficial for cholesterol, reducing the risk of stroke, losing weight and protecting eye and brain health. You can consume it through salads, sauces like guacamole and even in the form of ice cream.
