High-Energy Food
High-energy food is good for boosting your immune system and for preparing your body for doing physical activity. Essentially, our bodies need high-energy food everyday in order for our bodies to be able to perform our daily routines.
When pursuing high impact sports, such as aerobics, running and swimming, high energy food should be consumed in larger proportions. Through establishing an understanding of high-energy foods and how to determine the proportions that you require for your weekly activities, you will be capable of maintaining a balanced diet.
Important high-energy food to be aware of includes food from the five main food groups. The main five food groups include fruit & vegetables, dairy, meats, grains and pasta. To ensure that you gain the maximum benefits from high-energy food, you should try to choose food from all five of the essential food groups.
When searching for high-energy food amongst fruits, you should look for the banana, pineapple and strawberries. Among the vegetable group, the most important high-energy food is green leafy vegetables, such as spinach and cabbage. A good balance of these two food types is highly desirable.
Dairy foods that contain fats offer the best high-energy foods, however, it must be stressed that you should only eat dairy foods with a high fat content if you intend to be very active. Generally, red meats are high in energy, while white
meats will sustain your levels for normal daily activities, such as walking to the train station, or doing your housework.
Wheat and Barely are rich in high-energy nutrients and anything that contains these products can be considered a valuable food to eat to replenish lost energy levels. Pasta has long been regarded a staple food and can supply your body with much needed energy. Of course, you should only eat proportionate quantities in relation to the level of exercise you intend to pursue.
Establishing a healthy and balanced high-energy diet might take a little time to perfect, but once you understand the basics and that a high-energy food diet can be quiet diverse, you can experiment and create some fun and delicious meals.
Another fun way to maintain a high-energy food diet is to create high-energy drinks. One of the most effective high-energy drinks includes bananas, honey, eggs and milk. The bananas, honey and eggs are what give your body the high energy, while the milk helps mix it together to make a delicious 'milkshake' like drink.
