👉If you are feeling fatigued on a regular basis, one of the first things you need to check is your blood sugar levels. Healthy, stable blood sugar allows your brain to get a continual fuel supply and you feel mentally clear and energetic. Blood sugar imbalances, where you swing from high to low blood sugar levels, is a serious stressor on our bodies and causes energy fluctuations, trouble concentrating, sugar and carb cravings, trouble sleeping and poor overall daily performance. To stabilize your blood sugar levels, I recommend avoiding: 🥜Seed Oils 🍭Processed Sugars 🍩Chemicals and Toxins (found in processed foods) Instead, focus on the following 🥩High Protein - 30-50+ grams per meal 🥑Healthy Fats - 15+ grams of healthy fats in each meal (grass-fed meats, eggs, avocados, butter, olive oil, etc) 🥗Colorful Fruits & Veggies - up to your tolerance. Some do great on lots of fruits and veggies, while others do better on minimal fruits and veggies.
