It’s post lunch time and your clock has just hit 3 p.m. Suddenly you feel that absolute brain shut-down and you’re oozed off energy; zero concentration, your productivity has been nullified and you’re completely tired to even open your eyes or to even shift your position on the chair! 

Yes, it’s natural to happen when you are sleep deprived, but again there have been instances, even with complete 8 hours or more of deep sleep, I have experienced my energy evaporating for no obvious reason. Nothing, but post lunch slump is playing the villain here. 

If you too experience the same at work, or may be at home when you’ve plenty to actually set aside the to-do list for the day, here’s an interesting way to fight the post lunch slump or if I take the medical term it’s called the “afternoon apathy syndrome”. 

Food or more precisely slump-fighting nutrients, is all what I am talking about. 

Normally, we take three main meals a day, of which, the time gap between lunch and dinner is little too lengthy which forces your blood vessels or glucose to slightly drop in their activities. The only way out is to grab nutrient-dense food, in small volume but at regular intervals. It’s simply because your brain is drained and it demands to be replenished. 

Do you have any such tips to fight post lunch slump, if so, I am all ears!
