Food High Five: Five Foods That Are Good Before A Night Out

Every week, for our ‘Food High Five’ series, we’re going to talk about food that has great health benefits. This week, we're looking at foods that are good to eat before a night out. Pasta Carbohydrates and fatty foods, such as pasta, line your stomach ahead of a night out. The more that’s in your stomach, the longer it will take for alcohol to enter your blood stream. Chicken Because it’s full of protein, chicken will keep you feeling fuller for longer which should prevent those late-night hunger cravings. Watermelon It’s easy to become dehydrated during a night out. Fruits with high water content including watermelon and avocado should help combat this. Beans They are packed full of protein and fibre which will give you enough energy to keep you going until the early hours of the morning. Nuts If you want a snack before you head out, nuts are the way to go. They will give you an energy boost and contain B vitamins which can get depleted during a night out.
