Not only will your body absorb these sugars very quickly, but your brain will feel exhausted because, in addition to carbohydrates, it mostly needs he althy fats and proteins.
Cornflakes and fresh milk

In an effort to keep their waistlines within beautiful limits, many people use skim milk for this type of snack. This is even worse, because the absorption of these carbohydrates occurs best in the company of he althy fats.
Sandwich and fries
Burger with meatballs, sauces and greasy s alty fries - sounds tempting, but definitely not the best choice before important events. This combination will make you sleepy, without any energy, increase the risk of bloating, gas, digestive problems, diarrhea.
Don't eat anything
An even bigger mistake is not eating anything because your stomach has shrunk.
