Do you wake up feeling not rested? Do you reach for that cup of coffee like it’s the only thing in the world that can get you through your day, or crash around 3 p.m. in the afternoon and wish you could just curl up and go to sleep?

Selecting natural foods in the correct balance will help stabilize your blood sugar, and they come loaded with nutrients and fibre, which fill you up, give you longer-lasting energy and keep your digestive system humming.

Here are 10 Steps to Increased Energy Naturally!
  1. Green drinks are superfood-based supplements containing energizing amino acids, vitamins, minerals and proteins from sprouted grains. These drinks are powerful and uplifting to keep you feeling energized all day.
  2. Protein shakes or smoothies for breakfast balance blood sugar levels and regulate energy all day long.
  3. Fresh vegetable juice, such as a combination of carrot, parsley, cilantro, celery, beet, ginger and a dash of lemon juice, provide a great injection of compacted, high-quality nutrients straight into your cells for immediate energy return.
  4. Get adequate sleep and rest. Be sure to take time for YOU.
  5. Protein with every meal and snack keep blood sugar levels from fluctuating.
  6. Water is critical to maintain an anabolic drive and produce optimal energy. Drink eight to 10 eight-ounce glasses each day.
  7. Colourful salads and vegetables chock-full of raw foods aid in digestion because raw foods contain digestive enzymes—and the more colourful a natural food is, the higher it is in nutrients. Go for the rainbow!
  8. Essential Fatty Acids, especially Omega 3, is important for maintaining a good mood and to enhance your cognitive ability.
  9. Never skip meals and don’t go too long without eating.
  10. Acidic foods such as meat, alcohol, dairy and sugar slow the metabolism and invite illness. A balance is important. Choose 25% acidic foods and 75% alkaline foods, such as fruits, vegetables and grains. Disease will only live in an acidic body.
