These are the four types of foods that are the key to more energy, according to experts.
But there are also some foods that nutritionists say can boost your energy if you do need a pick-me-up.
Complex carbohydratesSimple carbohydrates, including white bread, quickly break down into sugar and instantly lead to spikes in your blood sugar, Dr. Nancy Rahnama, an internist and clinical nutritionist, told CNBC Make It in January of 2023.
Having complex carbs for breakfast can help you feel energized throughout the day, registered dietitian Maya Feller told CNBC Make It last year.
It turns out that eating foods high in fiber at the very top of your day can be a great hack for more energy, according to Rahnama.
