If you're anything like me, you start your day off with a cup of coffee or tea. Something hot and soothing and that gets you going in the
morning. Now, although coffee and tea provide you with antioxidants, they also contain tannins that interfere with the body's absoption of iron. Iron, as many of us know helps to form red blood cells and circulate
oxygen throughout the body, in turn, giving us more energy. So, next time you need a "pick me up", as I call it, try an apple. The natural sugars from an apple will help you to maintain your energy levels throughout the
day, instead of feeling even more tired than before once the sugar rush wears off from the caffeine in the coffee or tea you just drank.
