Foods & Supplements That Boost Energy and Support Weight Loss

Fuel Your Body for Lasting Results

When your energy is low, it’s easy to reach for caffeine or sugar to get through the day. But those quick fixes only lead to crashes, cravings, and frustration. The real key to feeling energized while supporting weight loss is giving your body the right balance of nutrients — foods and supplements that work with your metabolism, not against it.

At Revive 2 Thrive Wellness, I help patients understand how small, intentional changes in nutrition and supplementation can make a big difference in how they feel day to day. Here are some simple ways to fuel your body for energy, focus, and long-term results.

1. Eat Protein with Every Meal

Protein is your body’s best friend when it comes to sustained energy and weight management. It helps stabilize blood sugar, supports lean muscle, and keeps you feeling full longer.Try adding:

• Eggs or Greek yogurt in the morning

• Chicken, fish, or tofu at lunch

• A protein shake or snack with nuts and fruit between meals

Eating consistent, balanced protein helps prevent energy crashes and supports a healthy metabolism.

2. Focus on Complex Carbs for Steady Energy

Carbohydrates are not the enemy — they’re your body’s main source of fuel. The trick is choosing complex carbs that digest slowly, keeping your energy levels stable.Examples include:

• Sweet potatoes

• Oats or quinoa

• Whole-grain bread or brown rice

• Beans and lentils

Pair these with protein or healthy fats to avoid blood sugar spikes and to stay full longer.

3. Incorporate Healthy Fats

Healthy fats are essential for brain function, hormone balance, and energy. They also help your body absorb vitamins and keep you feeling satisfied.Best sources include:

• Avocado

• Olive oil

• Salmon

• Nuts and seeds

Just remember that fats are calorie-dense, so a little goes a long way.

4. Add Natural Energy-Boosting Supplements

Sometimes even with a balanced diet, your body needs an extra boost. Supplements can help fill nutritional gaps and support cellular energy production.

Some of my top recommendations include:

• Vitamin B12: Supports red blood cell production and energy metabolism.

• B-Complex Vitamins: Help convert food into energy more efficiently.

• NAD⁺ Therapy: Fuels your cells at the deepest level, improving energy, focus, and recovery.

• Glutathione Injections: Support detoxification, immune health, and post-exercise recovery.

These treatments are available through Revive 2 Thrive Wellness and are personalized based on your goals, energy levels, and health needs.

5. Stay Hydrated

Even mild dehydration can leave you feeling sluggish and affect your metabolism. Aim to drink at least half your body weight in ounces of water daily. Adding lemon or electrolytes can make hydration more enjoyable and beneficial.

Bringing It All Together

Energy and weight loss go hand in hand. When your body gets the nutrients it needs — from whole foods and targeted supplements — your metabolism works more efficiently, your cravings decrease, and your energy naturally improves.
