The foods you eat—how often and how much—and the macro and micronutrients within those foods directly correlate to the amount of energy that’s available to you. From healthy fats to adaptogens, essential vitamins and balancing blood sugar levels, holistic nutritionist Jesse Lane Lee breaks it down and shows which foods zap energy and which foods make it soar. After suffering through irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), Jesse was able to heal her gut and boost her energy levels by dramatically changing her eating habits. This is a meaningful topic to her and she is on a mission to educate students on how to embrace clean foods that will fuel your most energized life.

Much of the energy available to us comes from the food we eat. The Standard American Diet (SAD) has been demonstrated to provide poor energy. Low energy can be caused by a number of factors including anemia, hormone imbalance, dehydration, poor diet or nutrient absorption, as well as more environmental factors such as stress and poor sleep. These issues can present as further complications like food allergies, candida, thyroid dysfunction and adrenal fatigue.

The good news is that changing your eating habits can help heal and prevent your health issues starting right now.
