Hi guys, as the title suggests, I'd like anyone here to recommend a natural substitute to energy drinks. I really don't mind a Monster occasionally, but I need constant energy everyday and even though I exercise I find I still need something to supplement my natural energy.

So, if you're aware of any foods that help boost energy in a way that energy drinks do, please share.

Thanks

Try Sugar cane very nice

Oh, really? Would never have thought of it. However, isn't it going to raise my blood sugar and put me at risk of diabetes?

And you are drinking energy drink as if na pure water u dey drink... Don't you know you are putting ur body and organs at risk by drinking too much energy drink.

3 scoops of Whey protein
Unsweetened yoghurt
Banana
Peanut butter
Honey for the sweet taste(optional)
Some ice cubs

Blend the above together and drink up.

I think I'll substitute groundnuts for peanut butter because of the sugars and salts used in the manufacturing, but great tip. Thanks

If you are not into fitness or a sportsman but do exercise once in a while. You can remove the whey protein and replace with non-fat powdered milk.

I actually don't like powdered milk except for mixing garri which isn't often
