Tips For Eating Accordingly To Each Time Of The Day
Do you eat healthily?
By consuming "the right thing at the right time" you provide the daily energy you need to work, burn excess fat and maintain a healthy tone. To find out the strictly individualized diet, consult a dietitian. The following is just a guide.
7 p.m. - 9 a.m.
Immediately after waking up, drink a glass of water to "wash" the kidneys. Then, to wake up the metabolism, move on to physical exercise (refreshment has been mandatory since grandma's time, remember?). Muscles need fuel to function properly.
Eat a sandwich, a food rich in carbohydrates, which gives you instant energy. You can eat the sandwich with any garnish - bread is what matters. After exercise, drink fruit juices, mineral water, or tea to replace fluids lost through sweating.
9 p.m. - 11 a.m.
Fruits with a slow energy intake - peaches, plums, and grapes - give you constant energy throughout the morning. Now is the right time for a dose of calcium; so include dairy products such as skim milk or yogurt in your breakfast. It is also good to eat as much grain as possible - high fiber foods.
11 a.m. - 1 p.m.
Towards the middle of the day, the energy level begins to decrease; the signal is when you feel like slowing down a bit, like a spontaneous need for rest. We need another snack at noon. Once upon a time, it was not in vain that the "lunch" was scheduled at noon in the families where they ate at home.
Fruits with spontaneous energy intake (such as bananas), followed by a carbohydrate with a slower energy "emission", such as a muffin, will give you an instant refreshment and a constant level of energy for the next hours - usually dedicated to working.
1 p.m. - 3 p.m.
You may now be consuming lean protein such as chicken or fish to maintain your energy levels at this time of day. Fish is a "brain" food and helps you concentrate all afternoon. Eat a salad to "get" the body free access to the minerals, vitamins, and antioxidants it needs.
3 p.m. - 6 p.m.
Towards the end of the afternoon is the critical moment; you have exhausted your strategic reserves, you have thrown all the fighters into the fight against stress, the army needs reinforcements - and it is manifested by the craving for sweets. And why not satisfy her with healthy, dried fruit - not wafers?!
Then drink water and a cup of herbal tea sweetened with sugar. (Don't worry about sugar; consumed in moderation, it's not as fierce an enemy as they say; in addition, it makes life more enjoyable…)
6 p.m. - bedtime
Dinner is not only the most relaxing meal of the day (the chores are over, you are in your free time) but also the most suitable to enjoy fresh or cooked vegetables as simply as possible.
Eat saturated vegetables or salads; and if you still haven't quenched your hunger, you can add a little meat or a vegetarian menu. At dinner, you can also include lean proteins, such as chicken or fish, as they "repair" the affected cells during the day.
A dessert is welcome, let's face it. The effect is not only pleasure but also to ensure night rest; A moderate level of blood sugar releases serotonin, which induces the sensation of sleep.
You can also try a fresh fruit salad or ice cream (no fat, if possible). If you have trouble sleeping, a glass of warm skim milk will relax you and lure Santa Ene.
Midnight snack
Some people think that you gain weight if you eat after the new evening or if you have another snack after a late dinner because the body is no longer able to burn calories. But dietitians can provide absolutely no evidence to support this.
You can't order Shut down from the body, it doesn't "shut down" at night, but it works even when you sleep. So it doesn't matter how late you eat, you'll still be able to digest your food without gaining weight - as long as these snacks are within the allowable daily dose of calories.
