If you believe everything you read, you need to eat plenty of bread, pasta and potatoes for energy as these are carbohydrates, right?
Well, I would class myself as a very active person and I have discovered something quite interesting.
I have drastically reduced the wheat, grain and dairy from my diet and I have found no difference in my energy levels at all.
I also play five a side football once a week and I have maintained a high performance level without these food groups. I have been eating a lot of vegetables and fruit instead.
I also always used to have an "energy drink" prior to my more excessive exercise, I don't now and I haven't noticed a difference! Could this be all in the mind?
I believe it is worth a try for anyone, just for one day at first, to reduce the grains, wheat and dairy to see how they feel. I feel great with no reduction in performance!
Try it, see how you feel!
