#1 Oatmeal: Oatmeal is a great complex carbohydrate to replenish glycogen stores after exercise. It is also rich in fiber to keep you full, and balance blood sugar.

#2 Sweet Potatoes: Sweet potatoes are another excellent complex carbohydrate snack that can be enjoyed to help nourish your body after exercise. Try baking a sweet potato, and enjoying it with a tablespoon of coconut oil for an added boost.

#3 Full-fat Unsweetened Coconut Milk Yogurt: Yogurt is a convenient snack option, and is great if you need something to refuel your body with quickly. However, if you are trying to stay away from dairy, you may opt for a coconut or almond milk based option instead. Try a cup of full-fat unsweetened coconut milk yogurt with a tablespoon of flaxseeds and a cup of blueberries for a nourishing post exercise snack.

#4 Hard Boiled Eggs with Fruit: Eggs are rich in protein making them a great food choice to support muscle recovery. Snack on two hard boiled eggs with a side of fresh berries for a well-balanced post exercise snack.

#5 Post Workout Medicinal Mushrooms Shake: Our Magnificent Mushrooms Athletic Blend serves as the perfect addition to a post workout shake.
