Delicious Food for Thought

After a hard workout your body craves sweets. Here are some of my favorite post workout snacks. They are not necessarily the most nutritious snacks but boy do they hit the spot after a tough workout. Remember that it is critical to eat within the hour after a workout in order to replenish the glycogen stores in the liver, which go a long way in helping you recover sooner.

• Two scoops of my favorite ice cream

• Cookies and glass of milk

• Fruit and Yogurt

• Cereal
  

The great thing about eating junk food is that if it is eaten at the right time and in proper moderation it is a great way to rejuvenate the mind body and of course, our sweet tooth.
