A method to overcome insomnia (@dr.karanr)
We all have sleepless nights.
Some are disturbed, others are busy and sometimes - there is no real explanation for the phenomenon.
One of the problems with a sleepless night is a lack of energy the next day.
Many people think that the morning coffee will wake them up and give them a shot of energy, but in reality it will probably leave you tired and even irritable.
Nutrition is a very important element that contributes or destroys our sleep at night.
Some foods can indeed tire us out and others, on the other hand, will invigorate us - the important question is when to eat each of them, so that it fits into our daily schedule.
Here are five foods that are recommended to eat to get some energy in the morning.
lemon
It's not for nothing that they say he adds a lot.
Although most of us wake up in the morning with coffee, it is recommended to try replacing it with a glass of warm water with squeezed lemon.
Water with lemon not only cleans the body and removes toxins, after the night's sleep and before the start of the day, but is an immune booster for the whole body.
Because it is rich in vitamin C. The lemon in the mixture cleans the blood and the digestive system and increases metabolism, thus helping to lose weight.
Better than coffee.

In addition, avocado is one of the most delicious and versatile foods, and it is suitable for everything and every meal.

Banana
In 2012, researchers from the University of North Carolina decided to examine how the banana really affects the feeling of alertness.
The findings, published in the scientific journal PLoS One, showed that this beloved fruit is considered effective in maintaining energy among professional cyclists, with an efficiency similar to the energy drinks that some athletes consume before training.
This is because the banana is rich in fiber, vitamin B6 and potassium - an essential mineral that helps maintain body fluids, a feature that also contributes to improving alertness throughout the day.

Chia seeds
Chia seeds give the body stable energy because of the good ratio between protein, fats and dietary fiber combined with the fact that it is a whole grain.
The high fiber content in chia seeds slows the absorption of food, slows the absorption of sugars into the bloodstream, and provides a feeling of fullness that prevents overeating, a main reason why people can be very tired throughout the day.
Dark Chocolate
If you eat good quality dark chocolate (70% cocoa or more) you will also put many nutrients into your body, such as: potassium, iron, calcium, zinc and magnesium.
The vitamins found in cocoa are A, B1, B2, B3, C, E, which are important for the optimal functioning of the human body.
Thanks to the theobromine and caffeine components in cocoa, eating chocolate invigorates the body and contributes to a faster metabolism.
Therefore, if you are before training, eating chocolate will give you a small "boost".
