Good Morning. If you’re feeling anything short of fantastic this morning, maybe it’s because you loaded yourself up a bit with some sugar last night for Halloween. Maybe you had a costume party to attend or some neighbors family gathering to get the kids together for trick or treating.
If you fell off the healthy nutrition wagon last night and overloaded yourself with Sweet Tarts, Laffy Taffy’s, and Snickers Bars, or cake, I have a few things you can do today if you’re feeling a little tired, or your heart is racing and your mind is running out of your skull. This feeling of disappointment can last a few hours for some and up to a few days for others.
Here are some quick things you can do to help cure the sugar hangover:
- Drink Tons of Water – This will help in flushing out the toxins from your body and helping you to feel better sooner rather than later.
- Eat a Healthy Breakfast – A healthy protein meal at this time is important to get your body balanced with all the sugar you ate. Greek Yogurt is a great choice for this, or some nuts.
- Take in Some Coconut Oil – I use this ingredient in my shakes every morning. This is a healthy fat and will help your pancreas and rid of bad fungus and bacteria that is accumulated in your system when you consume a lot of sugar.
- Stay Away from Starchy Foods – Eating more carbs will turn into sugar and that’s what you are trying to cure. So protein instead of starch during this sugar hangover. You don’t necessarily have to avoid carbs altogether, but if you do, eating fruits and vegetables would be a wise choice.
- Last but not Least, Exercise – This will help you to feel energized. Don’t skip your workout for the day. No excuses. You had your fun, now it’s time to get that body back that you’ve been working so hard for. What can be more rewarding than that?
Eating a ton of sugar can lead to diseases and obesity in the long run. Also can effect your moods and your performance at work and in life in general. Make sure you keep a balanced diet daily and always shoot for living a healthy lifestyle. Special occasions happen and we can and should celebrate, but make sure that you stay disciplined and know how to get back on track after a good night of laughs and memories.
