The Fire Hydrant (left) - 3-4 8oz glasses throughout the day filtered water 1 slice lemon 1 pinch cayenne pepper Other than getting 7-8 hours of sleep a night, staying hydrated is the most important thing you can do to help keep your body functioning at optimum levels. So this drink is just water with a squeezed lemon slice and a pinch of cayenne pepper. The lemon not only tastes good, but is also super alkaline which helps your body maintain a healthy pH level. The cayenne pepper helps raise energy levels naturally and provides protection for your heart by helping to maintain proper cardiovascular movement throughout the body. Combining this with 4-5 glasses of regular water will bring you up to your recommended 8 glasses of water per day! The Quick Fix (center) - as needed, during the day  (I don’t recommend drinking it at night as it might keep you up) hot water 1 1/2 - 2 tsp honey (to taste) 1 inch of fresh ginger root ¼ tsp ground cardamom ¼ tsp tumeric Cut off two thin slices of ginger and place in your cup or mug.  Use a garlic press to juice the remaining ginger into your mug. Add both spices and fill your mug with hot water and stir. Ginger speeds up metabolism and increases circulation. It also aids in the digestive process which can help stave off the post lunch coma that contributes to the afternoon slump. Turmeric, a cousin of ginger, also helps speed things up in the body, including energy levels! And Cardamom has long been valued medicinally for its ability to increase circulation and improve energy. Honey is mother nature’s equivalent of an energy shot and is one of the best kinds of sugars for your body. The Heavy Lifter (right) - 1 glass in the morning 1 ripe banana ¼ cup raw almonds or 2 tbsp almond butter 1 scoop of high quality whey protein powder (low sugar content) 2 washed kale leaves ½ cup plain yogurt 1 tbsp ground flax seeds 1 cup milk of choice (I used unsweetened almond milk) According to Dr. Oz, sixty percent of women don’t get enough protein in their diets and that is often the number one reason for fatigue! A morning protein shake is a really easy and delicious way to make sure that you’re starting the day off well fueled. Pair this with a piece of whole grain toast and you have everything you need to give you a solid energy foundation for the day.
