Overconsumption of processed snacks, sugary drinks, and fried items can lead to fatigue, digestive issues, and poor workout performance.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"923\" data-end=\"1159\">A better approach is to include nutrient dense foods such as nuts, seeds, whole grains, dairy products, lean meats, and healthy fats.
