What to eat and when…

“The food you eat encourages the production of the energy molecule ATP,” says Sarah.

“To get that energy powerhouse working you need a good supply of B vitamins, magnesium and Co-enzyme Q10. Plus plenty of omega-3 fatty acids to keep your mitochondria happily producing energy.” If you’re after all-day energy you need to fuel your body properly with the right nutrients throughout the day. Try to eat regularly, every three hours or so and make sure every meal or snack is made up of protein, healthy fats, complex carbohydrates and some fruit or vegetables. Try eggs on wholegrain toast with wilted spinach for breakfast, an apple and a palmful of almonds mid-morning, a chicken salad pitta for lunch, some natural yogurt with berries mid-afternoon and some grilled salmon with vegetables and a baked sweet potato for dinner.
