While it comes to eating for energy, bio-individuality reigns supreme. Food that gives one person energy may deplete another person. It’s important to experiment and find what works best for you. As you can see, there are a lot more foods you can eat than foods you can’t eat. This is a great area to practice crowding out. Have fun with it.
