Foods with a high glycemic index cause cortisol levels to rise. These foods include products high in sugar and refined starches. Skipping meals can also boost cortisol levels. Harding says a high cortisol level at night can disrupt sleep.
Any foods high in nutrients are a great choice for high energy levels, plus make sure to add food that delivers oxygen to the blood and food that is calorically dense. Examples: dates, dried fruits, water, bananas, oatmeal, sweet potato, buckwheat and brown rice all fall into these categories.
