List of Energizing Healthy Foods

It's not only which energizing foods you choose to eat, but also when you choose to eat them that's important, according to Medicine.net. For optimum energy levels, you should maintain a steady blood sugar level throughout the day. This can be done by making sure you eat something every few hours.

Fruits and Vegetables

• Fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamins, fiber, antioxidants and carbohydrates. Consume berries (especially blueberries and strawberries), spinach, cantaloupe, mangoes, tomatoes, peppers, sweet potatoes and citrus fruits.

Whey

• Whey offers easily digestible protein that supports your body's serotonin levels and overall weight-management processes.

Tea

• Tea can be a powerful and healthy energizing drink, according to HealthyEatingWorld.com. Organic black tea, green tea, white tea and loose leaf tea are all recommended. Tea keeps you hydrated without adding sugar to your system. Although it contains small amounts of caffeine, there isn't enough to give you a caffeine headache or make you too hyper. Tea has also been shown to boost your body's metabolism.
