5 Foods to fight fatigue

Here are some foods to fight fatigue that may help our bodies get back to feeling energized again

We all are different from each other; our body structure is different and reacts differently to different factors. The most common reasons for fatigue can be

1. Common allergies that lead to regular sneezing and a watery nose.

2. Anemia can lead to medical issues like dizziness and fatigue

3. Mental health issues like depression, stress, and anxiety may also contribute to feelings of fatigue. 

4. Bacterial and viral infections can also lead to fatigue.

5. Lower levels of thyroid hormone in the body can affect the body's metabolism that can cause fatigue.

6. Other conditions like heart disease, rheumatoid arthritis, sleep disorders, and cancer or cancer treatments are also associated with fatigue and general tiredness. 

Foods to fight fatigue

Nuts - If you are feeling tired between meals, the best snacking options are nuts and seeds like almonds, walnuts, Chia seeds, flax seeds, and pistachios. They provide essential nutrients, fiber and boost energy to the tired body. Most nuts are rich in magnesium, potassium, and other vital nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids which are potent antioxidants. These are the perfect fatigue-fighting foods.

Fresh fruits and vegetables - Fresh fruits and vegetables are full of vital nutrients that help to keep the metabolism going and improve energy levels. The fresher the fruit or vegetable, the better it is for your health. They are ideal foods that prevent fatigue and depression.

Proteins - Nothing fights fatigue like proteins. Beans, tofu, cottage cheese, and sprouts are foods that fight fatigue. Most of these are rich in magnesium which helps to restore energy levels.

Whole Grains and complex carbohydrates – Never skip breakfast. To have stable energy levels throughout the day, try to eat an oatmeal breakfast or have whole grain options like whole-wheat pancakes, multigrain sandwiches, or quinoa. These have a high amount of good quality carbohydrates that provide fuel to our brains and muscles, so they work efficiently and make great foods to fight fatigue.

Non-caffeinated drinks - Instead of coffee or tea to kickstart your morning, choose fresh fruit juices, milkshakes, green tea, or smoothies to help boost low energy levels. They make nutritious options for foods that prevent fatigue.
