A Fast and Energizing Lunch for Long Days
By Neil Stadford, Project Weight Loss Editor - Diet
January 30, 2008


It`s very difficult to find enough time for lunch in a busy day. However, lunch is an important meal and should not be avoided in order to stay in shape and gain a lot of energy.

For lunch, it is indicated to avoid white bread, white sugar, oils, and generally, products that go through processing. Try not to consume foods rich in calories but with small amounts of nutrients such as sweets or sweet beverages. These products when it comes to keeping your weight under control or increasing your energy levels.

On the other hand, white cheeses, raw vegetables, seafood, or oils obtained through processing at low temperatures can help your body absorb faster the necessary nutrients from foods.

Foods with large amounts of proteins are a good source of energy for the muscles. Goat cheese is an important source of proteins along with meat and fish and may be consumed with green salad, cucumbers, or mint.

Take advantage of aromatic herbs. They are rich in minerals and vitamin C and may be consumed with any type of food. Try to add more parsley, basil, tarragon, coriander, mint, and dill to your diet.

Seeds are also a cocktail of vitamins and minerals. The seeds of mustard, my, or lucerne are healthy, economic, and are found in the menus of many restaurants.

Fight against the fatigue with the miraculous cereal Kamut. This Egyptian cereal has large amounts of magnesium, zinc, and selenium. It is also a good source of energy and a strong antioxidant. Many people who are intolerant to wheat seem to have no problem with Kamut.
