Dragging through your morning? Then try adding these breakfast favorites to your a.m. menu: yogurt and eggs. Starting your day with eggs can help you feel full longer too.
This little diet tweak could help you forget you even have a snooze button, thanks to the extra dose of tyrosine -- a building block for two important wake-up-your-brain chemicals.
Do You Feel Good?Tyrosine helps make the wake-up brain chemicals dopamine and norepinephrine. Studies show that people tend to think more quickly and feel more motivated and energetic when their brains are producing large amounts of these chemicals.
In addition to eggs and yogurt, other food sources of tyrosine include almonds, chicken, avocados, bananas, and sesame seeds.
Two more energy sources to help keep you sharp in the a.m.:
Oranges and other citrus -- The vitamin C in oranges and other citrus fruits has been shown to help beat fatigue.
Amaranth and Quinoa – These cereals contain 16 and 18 miligrams of iron, a nutrient that’s essential for energy, especially in women. Both of these cereals for breakfast will kick the butt of cream of wheat (which has 10 miligrams of iron per cup). And with the sensitivities to wheat that many people have, these two grains are worth their weight in gold. Eat them….you’ll love them and their nutrition is amazing.
If you still need a pick-me-up in the morning, contact Dolkar Wellness for some of our amazing healthy energy drink called LIFTOFF. No sugar....lots of vitamins and minerals....DELISH!
