They are an excellent source of carbohydrates, potassium and vitamin B6, all of which can help boost energy levels in your body Apples are one of the most popular fruits in the world, and are a good source of carbs and fiber. A medium-sized apple (185 grams) contains about 25 grams of carbs, 19 grams of sugar and up to 4 grams of fiber. Due to their rich content of natural sugars and fiber, apples can provide a slow and sustained energy release. Furthermore, apples have a high antioxidant content. Research has shown that antioxidants could slow down the digestion of carbohydrates, so they release energy over a more extended period of time. Lastly, it is recommended to eat apples whole. Juices and purees, from which fiber is removed, are ingested faster and can only provide you with quickly digested energy (25). Dark chocolate. The antioxidants in cocoa have been shown to have many health benefits, such as increasing blood flow throughout the body. This effect helps the delivery of oxygen to the brain and muscles, which improves their functions. This can be especially helpful during exercise Additionally, the increase of blood flow produced by antioxidants in cocoa could help reduce mental fatigue and improve mood. Dark chocolate also contains stimulatory compounds such as theobromine and caffeine, which have been shown to enhance mental energy and mood Sweet potatoes. One medium-sized sweet potato could pack up to 23 grams of carbohydrates, 3.8 grams of fiber, 28% of the RDI for manganese and a whopping 438% of the RDI for vitamin A (12). Thanks to sweet potatoes’ fiber content and complex carbs, your body digests them at a slow pace, which provides you with a steady supply of energy (13). Sweet potatoes are also a great source of manganese, which helps in the breakdown of nutrients to produce energy. Besides being a great and inexpensive source of protein, lentils are a good source of nutrients and help boost energy levels. Lentils are legumes that are rich in carbs and fiber. One cup of cooked lentils provides up to 40 grams of carbs and about 16 grams of fiber The fiber in lentils promotes slow stomach emptying and more controlled increases in blood sugar levels. Therefore, you will not only feel full for longer after you eat them, but you can also expect steady energy levels . Additionally, lentils can increase your energy levels by replenishing your stores of folate, manganese, zinc and iron. These nutrients assist in the effective production of energy in cells and breakdown of nutrients for the release of energy Paige Embry is an author with a passion for gardening living in Seattle, WA.
