The Energy Of A Child

We are often, sometimes mostly thinking about food. Nourishing your body and mind is about supplying the system with healthy options. Sugar is a basic boon, but should only be consumed on occasion alongside a healthy balanced diet. I know people who read health reports and suddenly cut out nutritious fruit because it contains sugar! But fruit contains fibre, vitamins and minerals UNLIKE candy, crisps and fizzy drinks...fruit contains Potassium, Vitamin C's, D's, Calcium, Phytonutrients (which helps the body from the detrimental effects of free radicals).

It's crazy to not eliminate the bad sugars first. Anyway that's my 2 cents. Stay with fresh fruit and vegetables and feel your energy stabilise and sustain you better. Next focus on exercise and the energy you need to keep you actively exercising. Remember the freedom of running around constantly as a child?

If anyone is desperate to avoid fruit, well I think you are crazy, having lived in a tropical hot country where fruit is the refreshing, hydrating god-send in soaring hot temperatures. I digress from all things Yogic, so here's a little list of 'lower sugar content' fruit to munch through during your day : Strawberries, Peaches, Blackberries, Lemons, Limes, Honeydew, Oranges, Grapefruit.
