Beat Post-Lunch Fatigue: Foods for Sustained Energy


Question
What specific foods could I eat at lunch time to prevent me from feeling lethargic in the afternoon. I always feel really tired and dopey after eating my lunch.

Answer
Hi Lucy,

Lots of plain water, always.

Eat quality carbs, eat protein, just do not eat them at the same time - carbs are digested by alkalis, protein by acids, they fight each other and take a lot of blood flow, energy and up to 3 times longer to digest than if you let them take turns by a few hours. More at http://www.premiumfuel.com
