Why is it that filling up on pasta or Chinese food for lunch leaves us snacky and sleepy an hour later? Or that falling short on fluids makes us forgetful and foggy? Fact is, eating habits play a powerful role in how well we function on every level. So to keep you alert, here are six top fatigue-fighting nutrition strategies to chew on. First, have breakfast... even if you don't feel hungry. You'll be a lot perkier. Eat every three to four hours. Fill up on more fiber. Fuel your brain with omega-3s. Stay hydrated. And finally, watch caffeine intake after noon.
