#59) More Energy at Work Series | Pt. 1 Nutrition, FUEL for Work, Soothing Anxiety

We’re going to be covering some eating fundamentals during this podcast--what you should CUT OUT, ADD in, and supplement if you want to feel better at work. I’m going to do my best to make it practical, because I know how incredibly hard it is to stay on the wagon.

7-day challenge mentioned in the episode:

• Cut out refined carbohydrates and processed foods completely!
• Replace with healthy complex carbs that give you more sustained energy (e.g. overnight oats)
• Eat 7 SERVINGS of fruits and vegetables per day (DON'T SKIP!)
• Increase EPA / DHA intake by eating food high in omega 3 (salmon)
• Cut down alcohol + caffeine intake (likely no more than 2 drinks per day).
• Increase water intake.

Don't forget to record how you feel on a daily basis (scale of 1-10). Seven days is only the start; continue doing this and keep up with most of the eating for the next 30 days to really feel the results!
