How to be a Pro Gamer? Eat a Healthier Diet!

It's true! People eat specific diets full of carbs for energy and essential vitamins and nutrients, along with the daily amount of water intake. People who have such healthy diets and get the nutrients they need, will most likely perform better than their Dunkin Donuts bretheren.

List of some vitamins and what they'll do for you:

Vitamin C: May Fight Stress (Stress is gained through various means, and isn't limited to physical stress, but can also be attributed to Emotional/Mental Stress)

Thiamine (B-1): Thiamine may enhance circulation, helps with blood formation and the metabolism of carbohydrates. Can help your reaction time and energy levels/energy output. Focuses on the brain and neurotransmission.

Riboflavin (B-2): Similar to Thiamine, works as a coenzyme in energy releasing reaction for various parts of the body,

Niacine (B-3): Similar to Thiamine and Riboflavin.

Vitamin B-5 Pantothetic Acid: Similar to other B-vitamins, also helps produce adrenaline.]

Biotin: Energy Metabolism

Vitamin A: Supports Vision Clarity

Sodium: Maintains fluid and electrolyte balance, supports muscle contraction and nerve impulse transmissions.

Potassium: Maintains fluid and electrolyte balance, cell integrity, muscle contractions and nerve impulse transmission

Magnesium: Protein building, muscular contraction, nerve impulse transmission

Iron: Carries oxygen throughout body's cells.

Copper: Needed for absorption and utilization of Iron

Caffeine: Stimulates many systems in your body, blood circulation, nerve impulse transmission, causes adrenal glands to release hormones into body, effects dopamine levels in the brain (as does sugar) that tends to give people a generally better feeling.

Vitamins C and B along with others are water-soluble and thus are very difficult to overdose on, so no worries about those!.

Also, the appropriate amount of sleep and exercise can also greatly increase your reaction speed, the blood-flow of your entire body (even the brain) and can be attributed to better awareness, feeling, attitude, and better performance as a whole.

So, you wanna become a better gamer? Eat like an athlete, drink all the water you need, get the right amount of sleep and even a bit of exercise. You will begin to see increased performances in your gameplay.

Good luck to you all, and I hope this information will help at least someone perform better.
