Halve Your Stress Double Your Energy

Are you reserves low?

Repeated stress depletes the body of vital nutrients, leaving you run down and prone to common health problems.

Some food solutions to help your body cope:
To boost your vitamin C intake, eat more citrus and kiwi fruit, potatoes, capsicums and broccoli. Low levels of vitamin C may lead to mouth ulcers, chapped lips and frequent colds.
Switch to brown rice and eat more pulses, green leafy vegetables and wheat germ (found in whole wheat as well). All of them are rich in vitamin B3, low levels of which cause irritability, lethargy and depression.
Eat more green vegetables, fruits, nuts and whole grains, which all contain magnesium. Low levels of this mineral can lead to insomnia, a foggy mind and twitchy muscles.
