Matcha green tea
抹茶味绿茶
A cup of matcha tea is regular green tea-but with the actual tea leaves (which are usually discarded) ground down into a powder and added to the hot water. The presence of the leaves boosts the caffeine level to about the same as a cup of coffee. "But instead of a sudden subsequent energy slump when the caffeine wears off, matcha provides a more calming sense thanks to the amino acid L-theanine," Ilana Muhlstein, RD, tells Health. Additionally, the powder is high in antioxidants.
抹茶就是普通绿茶--但茶叶(通常被扔掉)会被磨成粉加到热水里。茶叶的存在使其咖啡因含量与一杯咖啡大致相同。"但咖啡因的劲儿过了之后,你却不会觉得突然没了精神,这是因为抹茶含有氨基酸L-茶氨酸,所以会让你更平静,"注册营养师Ilana Muhlstein对《健康》杂志说道。此外,抹茶粉还富含抗氧化剂。
Wheatgrass juice
小麦草汁
"Wheatgrass is a concentrated source of antioxidant vitamins A, C, and E, as well as iron, calcium, magnesium, and amino acids," nutritionist and author Maggie Moon tells Health. In place of caffeine, these natural ingredients can give you a similar surge in energy. "Moreover, preliminary studies suggest that wheatgrass may also have a role in providing benefits for rheumatoid arthritis, ulcerative colitis, diabetes, obesity, and oxidative stress," Appetite for Health co-founder Julie Upton, RD, explains to Health.
"小麦草是抗氧化维生素A、C、E的浓缩来源,还含有铁、钙、镁和氨基酸,"营养学家、作家Maggie Moon对《健康》杂志说道。这些天然成分可代替咖啡因,给您带来类似的能量激增之感。"此外,初步研究表明:小麦草或能为类风湿性关节炎、溃疡性结肠炎、糖尿病和氧化应激带来治疗方法,"健康食欲(Appetite for Health)的联合创始人朱莉·厄普顿注册营养师对《健康》杂志解释道。
Ginseng tea
人参茶
Coffee can help you focus, which is exactly what the ingredients in ginseng tea appear to do as well. "There is emerging evidence that panax ginseng [one type of the ginseng plant] can improve mental performance in abstract thinking, reaction times, and mental math," says Moon. "It may also reduce the risk of getting a cold or flu. Coffee lovers may be attracted to its naturally bitter flavor."
咖啡能让你注意力集中,喝人参茶也能达到同样的效果。"越来越多的证据表明,人参(人参植物的一种)可提高抽象思维、缩短反应时间、提高心理数学等心理表现,"Moon说道。"人参还能降低人们患感冒或流感的风险。咖啡爱好者也许会爱上它本身的苦味哦。"
Pomegranate juice
石榴汁
The rich red color of the pomegranate fruit is a tip-off that it is packed with antioxidants, which can help power your energy level. "Pomegranate juice is known for its antioxidant potency, and its polyphenols are being studied for muscle strength recovery, cognition, and more," says Moon. She suggests adding it to sparkling water for an afternoon fuel source.
石榴汁那鲜艳的红色是富含抗氧化剂的象征,能让你充满活力。"石榴汁以其抗氧化能力而闻名,目前研究员正研究其多酚,用于肌肉力量恢复、认知等等,"Moon说道。她建议将石榴汁加入苏打水中,让午后充满活力。
Water
水
There's no better way to fight energy dehydration than with a cool glass of agua. "If you're dehydrated, water can boost cognitive and gastrointestinal function along with physical performance," Booking says. "So before going for coffee, drink a few glasses of water-this may help you feel more energized."
没有什么比一杯凉水更能抵消能量脱水了。"如果脱水,水能提高认知和胃肠功能,同时提高身体表现,"Booking说道。"所以喝咖啡前,先喝几杯水吧--或许你会更有活力。"
