Usually food energizes us, and almost any breakdown is solved by a competent snack. But there are foods after which, on the contrary, you will feel drowsiness, lethargy, and powerlessness. In this case, what should you limit in your diet?
Processed cereals
Products such as bread, pasta, rice contain less vitamins and minerals. They provoke fluctuations in blood sugar levels, so you may feel exhausted after a hearty meal.
Wrong breakfasts
By eating cereals, breakfast cereals, and artificially flavored yogurt for breakfast, prepare yourself to not have enough energy before lunch. This breakfast contains a lot of sugar – fast carbohydrates, which will also lead to a sharp rise and then a drop in insulin. Powerlessness is guaranteed to you.
Low-calorie foods
Low-calorie foods provide negligible energy. Not only will you not have enough strength until the next meal, but over time you will stabilize the body’s work – the hormonal system and metabolism, which will negatively affect your health.
Energetic drinks
Energy drinks provide strength only for a short time. They reduce drowsiness and increase concentration, as they contain a large amount of sugar and caffeine. But after a jump in energy, a decline and a strong impotence will surely follow.
Alcohol
Alcohol relaxes the nervous system and relieves stress, but there comes a time when intoxication deprives you of sleep. The party can turn into a sleepless night, which means that in the morning you will not have the energy at all for a productive day.
