Nutrition And Exercise
Doctor James Jennings, Family Medicine Specialist at Baptist Health Primary Care, recommends to have a small meal prior the workout for receiving the benefits of the exercise.
When exercising early in the mornings with an empty stomach, Doctor Jennings explains, the person has a risk to suffer from hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), has no energy and therefore will not get the benefits of the exercise.
Nutrition is the fuel lines, the key. Try to eat early. It is important to have a good breakfast, a snack throughout the day with healthy foods including fruits and nuts. The idea is not eating a lot at nighttime before going to bed, he says.
