These eye-opening drinks can boost your energy early in the morning without the use of caffeine.
1. Supercharged water
While water is undeniably the best way to get hydrated in the morning, it’s not very exciting. Infuse water with tasty extras like cucumber and mint for a refreshing drink or add fruits like lemon and berries for benefits like added vitamins and anti-inflammatory properties.
2. Coconut water
For an extra boost to your morning hydration, coconut water is packed with electrolytes and the minerals needed for healthy function, such as potassium, magnesium, and sodium. These are particularly essential for hydration as sodium helps the osmosis process in your cells, allowing them to become hydrated.
3. Electrolyte smoothie
If you’re someone who wakes up especially thirsty or you like to get in a workout early, then focusing on replenishing electrolytes is a must. Minerals like magnesium and calcium help your muscle’s function, reducing the risk of cramps and putting a spring in your step. For the ultimate electrolyte-focused smoothie, try these ingredients:
Coconut water
Soy milk
Spinach
Kale
Banana
Watermelon
Peanuts (or peanut butter)
Strawberries
Not only will this hydrate you, but it’s a super healthy, energy-packed breakfast that will set you up for a productive day.
