2 Easy Meals to Help Maximize Energy

I’m always looking for meals to help maximize energy. First, I must be aware of what zaps my energy. I’ve been associating the effects of food on my body over the years because of studying wholistic nutrition at Clayton College of Natural Health and reading nutrition books.

So, today I’d like to share with you two meals and a Three-Day Food Diary to show you how to become more aware of food’s effect on your body. It is a technique good for helping you identify problems and spurn you into an Intentional Eating program for yourself and your family. The process is really simple, and I’ve included a downloadable pdf journal below so you can attach it to your phone or print it at your convenience.

The great thing about this 3 Day Food Journal is you’ll quickly learn what increases your energy and what zaps it!

Three Day Food Diary: A three-day food diary is helpful to note eating patterns and signs and symptoms (S/S) after eating certain foods. For example, you may not normally associate a burning sensation in your stomach after eating salsa and chips, coffee or citrus. But I assure you, there are acidic foods, spices, and drinks creating havoc in your stomach. Although you and I may be able to tolerate one acidic substance, we find out when we add two or three more, we’re up all night with pain!

Another thing that occurs with energy zapping foods is fatigue or muscle aches. Some people even get headaches, itching, or bloating as symptoms. Even though we may not have a food allergy, the discomfort is real. We can quickly begin to identify food sensitivities by recording how we feel after we eat in this three-day journal.

I also like to ask people to record all serving sizes, soft drinks, added toppings. So, we don’t miss anything!

In the meantime, enjoy this Energy Packing Salad I make just about every day, and this Salmon, Broccoli, and Sweet Potato Omelet I found on YouTube. You’ll enjoy plenty of helpful Omega 3, magnesium, B vitamins, and power packed Broccoli’s antioxidant and cancer fighting ability! Not only that but you’ll have energy to sustain you throughout the day!

God loves you and I so much He sufficiently provided for our bodies time here on earth through every item in the garden. But more importantly, He shows us His love through His Son’s sacrifice on the cross for our eternal souls. May He bring you much joy from His wonderful goodness today!

Before you know it, you maximize your energy too!
