1. Prunes
Prunes have long held a reputation to keep you ‘regular’. This sweet shriveled fruit, however, provides benefits through key antioxidants and is in fact an excellent energy source. According to a recent study, eating prunes does not result in a sudden rise in blood sugar due to their high fiber and sorbitol content, which is metabolized slowly by the body. This translates to a low glycemic rating, meaning a slow, steady release of energy.
