High energy foods that I personally consume that give me a boost are Quinoa, Lentils, Tuna Fish, Beans, Beans and Whole Grain Cereal. I make my own snack and lunch for the whole week, I prepare it every Sunday. I will bring it to work so I make sure that I'm not eating junk foods.
Here are some high-energy, nutrient-dense food options that can help provide sustained energy during your labor:
- Oatmeal - Provides complex carbs, fiber, and protein to fuel your body.
- Nuts and nut butters - Offer healthy fats, protein, and carbs for lasting energy.
- Fresh fruit - Bananas, berries, and citrus fruits provide natural sugars and vitamins.
- Whole grain toast with avocado - Combines complex carbs, healthy fats, and fiber.
- Greek yogurt with granola - Protein-rich yogurt plus complex carbs from the granola.
- Hard boiled eggs - Portable protein to keep you going.
Stay hydrated as well by sipping water, electrolyte drinks, or broths throughout your labor. Eating small, frequent meals can also help maintain your energy levels. Let me know if you need any other suggestions!
