]]> It’s the season to be merry, but what you don’t want is a raging hangover the next morning. The best way to help that is by eating the correct food beforehand. It’s important to give your body a chance to recover quickly, rehydrate, and balance your blood sugar levels. Here are four foods to eat before you go out drinking.

Healthy Fats

Fatty foods stay in your stomach for longer which helps slow down the absorption of alcohol in your blood, but that doesn’t mean you should eat a lot of fried foods. Try to eat more healthy fats like salmon and avocados to feel full and ward off the hangover.

Foods That Support the Liver

Adding some turmeric, cinnamon, kale, lemon, and beetroot to your meal is a great way to help support your liver and if you will be drinking alcohol make sure to eat plenty of these.

Slow Releasing Carbohydrates

If you want to keep balanced blood sugar levels while you are drinking, avoid salty snacks as they can dehydrate you, and eat more slow-releasing carbohydrates. Olives, nuts, bread, and chickpea dip are all great for slowing down the absorption of alcohol and easing your hangover the next day.

Fruit

If you do wake up with a slight hangover then fruit is your best friend, it will hydrate you and replace the vitamins you lost. A smoothie with bananas will restore your electrolytes and fruits like watermelon will hydrate you, so throw it all into a blender and enjoy.

]]> For a well-rounded breakfast, a smoothie is a great choice. It’s got sugar from the fruit to give you a head start on your day, you can add vegetables or other ingredients to help get your nutrients, and it’s perfect for folks on the go because you can drink it through a straw. But aside from sugar, it’s important to get protein in the morning to help you feel full and give you real energy and strength. Here are some ways to add protein to your smoothie.

Nut Milks

Plant milks are very popular right now, and not for nothing. They can provide more nutrient-rich, vegan alternative to dairy milk and contribute unique tastes. In addition, nuts are rich in healthy fats and protein, so nut milk in particular is a great option for you liquid smoothie base. You can also find protein-fortified soy milk, if you want to maximize your intake and/or have a nut allergy.

Nut Butters

Another nut option is nut butters. These will lend your smoothie thickness, texture, and flavor, making it more of a meal than a drink. Peanut butter and almost butter are the most common, but you can find butter of many other nuts. Local co-ops and health food stores may have nut butters in bulk which you can grind for yourself, so this is a good place to start looking for alternative nut butters.

Protein Powder

If you’re looking for the purest, most direct form of protein, you can add some protein powder to your morning shake. This will allow you to get protein without worrying about the fats from nut butters or the extraneous ingredients in dairy or soy.

]]> For a well-rounded breakfast, a smoothie is a great choice. It’s got sugar from the fruit to give you a head start on your day, you can add vegetables or other ingredients to help get your nutrients, and it’s perfect for folks on the go because you can drink it through a straw. But aside from sugar, it’s important to get protein in the morning to help you feel full and give you real energy and strength. Here are some ways to add protein to your smoothie.

Nut Milks

Plant milks are very popular right now, and not for nothing. They can provide more nutrient-rich, vegan alternative to dairy milk and contribute unique tastes. In addition, nuts are rich in healthy fats and protein, so nut milk in particular is a great option for you liquid smoothie base. You can also find protein-fortified soy milk, if you want to maximize your intake and/or have a nut allergy.

Nut Butters

Another nut option is nut butters. These will lend your smoothie thickness, texture, and flavor, making it more of a meal than a drink. Peanut butter and almost butter are the most common, but you can find butter of many other nuts. Local co-ops and health food stores may have nut butters in bulk which you can grind for yourself, so this is a good place to start looking for alternative nut butters.

Protein Powder

If you’re looking for the purest, most direct form of protein, you can add some protein powder to your morning shake. This will allow you to get protein without worrying about the fats from nut butters or the extraneous ingredients in dairy or soy.
