It’s not a myth, nor a placebo: yes, there is juice to give energy! For this, just mix fruit rich in sugars and vitamins and enjoy. Only inside 15 minutes you can get a generous glass on your own homemade energy drink!
However, not just any fruit will guarantee these energizing properties. In this recipe selected by Guia da Cozinha, açaí, guarana and watermelon are the protagonists. Watermelon serves as a source of vitamins B1 and B6, which participate in the production of energy in the body. Complementarily, guarana participates in reactions that directly stimulate the nervous system, as well as the caffeine!
As for açaí, the benefits are no different! According to Dr. Pedro Andrade, food can also be used in pre workout “as a great source of energy to enhance performance in, as well as post workout, to aid in recovery and muscle glycogen turnover,” says the doctor.
Whether it’s working out, studying or waking up, energy-boosting juice is great for an extra mid-afternoon boost!
