    What are some good quick energy foods?

    I have been at a loss of energy the last couple of days. Wanted to see what are some quick energy foods. Can you please list your favorites. I also added omega 3,6,and 9 to my supps along with chromium picolanate. Thanks everyone.

    Oh it could be that im still battling some sinus congestion. This may be a cause of lack of energy.

    your infection may be the cause of low energy levels as you mentioned.
    getting in a balaced diet of cmplex carbs(old fashioned oats, sweet potatoes, brown rice, bran, beans/legumes, fiberous veggies), lean protein and EFA's should help in restoring energy levels.
    getting enough sleep and stayed well hydrated are very important as well!

    I started my reefeads today. I will go for wednesday, and Saturday. I noticed last week I had a cheat meal wich was alot of pasta on chicken breast. The next day I had great energy all day long. I understand that a cheat day should not be a carb up day.

    Well if the pasta wasn't served with cream sauce and just tomato sauce then it was probably a refeed meal as well. Refeed meals are just carbs with a little protein and no fat.

    atherjen, anyone else
    What about fruits? A little bit o orange or apple?
    If you're a glutton for spiking your insulin level, have bagel.
    Bagels are like drugs for me. One of those, a cup of java, and
    I'm high. The drawback is of course, coming down from that high.
    Determined.

    Pierzin, fiberous fruits such as apples, pears, strawberries, etc in moderation are fine.
    I agree with the crashing of the bagel issue. a big carby meal really raises serotonin levels to make you feel much calmer.
