Nutrition Notes 1. Keep it simple with wholefoods. There are many products that are often filled with excess calories and sugar. If you are hungry or need a little pick me up snack, use wholefoods such as fruit, vegetable, nuts and dairy. This will keep you feeling satisfied without the extra sugar and calories. 2. Make sure you’re getting enough protein in, especially after hard or intense work outs. Protein has many functions in the body, including muscle building and repair, and helping reduce muscle soreness after exercise. It is a key nutrient in recovery. Protein is also important with satiety, so to feel fuller for longer. So make sure you include some protein (eggs, nuts, dairy, lean meat, fish and chicken) at each meal and snack. 3. It’s important not to over-eat on carbohydrates, a moderate intake of complex carbohydrates will help stabilise your blood sugar levels and will ensure that you’re getting in fibre and vitamins and minerals. Good choices include starchy vegetables (think sweet potato and pumpkin), whole-grains (think brown rice, quinoa, and wholemeal pasta), fruit and legumes and lentils. 4. Iron is one of the most important nutrients for energy production. Make sure you’re getting enough iron-rich foods in your diet regularly. Good sources include lean red meat, chicken, fish, eggs, legumes and lentils, nuts and seeds and green leafy vegetable. 5. Stay hydrated. Being dehydrated can impair energy levels, causing you to feel flat and fatigued. Make sure you stay hydrated, choosing water as your main drink (avoid sugary drinks like soft drink, juice, cordial and sports drinks). Aim for about 8 glasses of water a day.
