You are what you eat, especially when it comes to energy. Food you eat is your body's primary fuel. Choosing the right kind of fuel is the key to maintaining steady energy levels.
The afternoon slump is often caused by a sharp drop in your blood sugar levels. When you eat sugary snacks or refined carbohydrates (like white bread, pastries, or sugary drinks), your body gets a quick, intense burst of energy. This is the "sugar rush."
To maintain consistent energy, your meals should include three key things.
Complex Carbs: Slow-burning fuel for lasting energy. (Examples: Brown rice, quinoa, sweet potatoes, oats)
Lean Protein: Keeps you full and stabilises blood sugar. (Examples: Chicken, fish, lean beef, eggs, lentils)
Healthy Fats: Long-term energy for brain health. (Examples: Avocado, nuts, seeds, olive oil)
Our meals are balanced for sustained energy, so you don't have to think about it. Here’s how they work:
Vietnamese Satay Beef: This meal combines beef protein with rice to keep you full and focused all afternoon.
Lamb Ragu with Mash Potato: Our Lamb Ragu provides protein to fight fatigue, paired with the energy from complex carbs.
Smoked Fish Pie: Get a boost of brain-supporting omega-3 fats and lean protein from the fish, balanced with slow-burning carbs from the potato topping.
By combining lean protein, complex carbs, and healthy fats, you can enjoy consistent energy all day long. No more afternoon slumps
