🐟 Recovery Foods: What to Eat So Your Body Rebuilds While You Sleep
While you sleep, your body goes into full repair mode. It needs the right building materials to do this well.
Top Recovery Foods:
- Eggs - protein, good fats, tryptophan for serotonin
- Blue fish (salmon, tuna, mackerel, sardines) - best protein, rich in omegas
- Bone broth - digests in 25 minutes, as much protein as a chicken breast
- Miso - protein and good bacteria
- Beans - great plant-based protein
Digestion times to know:
- Fish: 1.5 to 2 hours
- Chicken: 5 hours
- Beef: 8 hours
Pro tip: Add white miso to bone broth for a quick, powerful recovery soup. Eating the right foods at night means you wake up feeling truly restored.
