Snacks Before Games? Yay or Nay?

Good Snacks, Good Performance.

Don't want to get sick right before a game? That's what I thought! You should always eat a little something before a match, even if it's just a simple snack. It will boost your energy level, and increase your level of performance. Don't know what to eat? I've got a few ideas for you! Pretzels, fruit, yogurt, granola bars, Gatorade, etc. Don't eat a full course meal before playing a match because odds are you will end up vomiting, and that's not pleasuring for anyone. You can also get sick by not eating anything before a game. You just need to get a little something in your system. By doing so, your body will then have more energy to perform the activities you want to excel in. When you get the right nutrients in your body, your body tends to give a good reaction. Fruits not only taste good, they also work for a good disease fighters in your body. Pretzels are full of carbohydrates and they're low in calories. Yogurt can provide your body with calcium and make sure you have strong bones. Granola bars are a quick and easy thing to grab and eat in a hurry! Gatorade gives your body electrolytes. When you are playing for more than an hour, Gatorade would be a good thing to drink. If you are exercising for less than an hour, then I suggest drinking water.
