High Energy Foods

Optimal health is more than just the absence of illness. A major factor in high level functioning is energy.  Energy production slowly erodes as we age.  Diminishing this rate of erosion and maintaining energy is the goal of optimal health.

What is energy for our bodies?  Every cell in our body has within it a furnace called the "mitochondria" that captures the calories supplied by our food, converting those calories into the physical-chemical reactions that supply the energy that runs all of our body functions.  The food we eat talks to the mitochondria directing its output of energy.

Our food, then profoundly affects our energy levels.  These kinds of foods we choose play a major role in wether slowing down or speeding up the aging process. There are certain foods that we consume that support the integrity of the mitochondria thereby providing for optimal function.  Below we have listed foods that support mitochondria function and foods that do not support mitochondria function.

 Foods That Support Mitochondria Function

• Foods high in omega 3 fats (e.g. seafood, sea vegetables, nuts and seeds)
• All Vegetables especially multi-colored vegetables.
• Fruits- especially berries
• Low fat sources of protein (e.g.beans, grains and oats) 

Foods That Harm Mitochondria Function

• Processed, highly refined foods
• Excess sugar
• Excess saturated fats found in animal products
• Food additives that help prolong shelf life.
• Foods treated with chemical pesticides and herbicides

Attention to these foods will do a great deal in helping maintain optimal health.
