Nutrients such as carbohydrates and fats will provide your body with the best source of energy. Whole grains such as quinoa, steel cut oats and brown rice are good choices. The fats found in almonds, avacados and walnuts are also good choices. Proteins also provide smaller amounts of energy.

Any food or beverage with electrolytes will provide energy. Electrolytes are what cause myocardial muscle to depolarize and contract, since electrolytes are positively charged. They mux with the naturally polarized myocardial cells to create energy.
