SLEEPY AFTER LUNCH

Aug 30, 2024 6:24 pm

Happy Friday, !

Ever wonder why you feel soooo tired after lunch some days, and what you can do to stop that from happening?

1️⃣First, you should know that your body is PROGRAMMED to feel sleepy between 1-3 pm... so some fatigue is normal.

2️⃣ But there ARE ways to lessen that fatigue:

● Don't overeat at lunch

● Go easy on heavy, starchy carbs - they can make your blood sugar yo-yo

● Be aware that protein-heavy lunches might make you sleepy (looking at

you, turkey, and dairy!)

● Soak up some sunshine after lunch - bright light can keep your energy up

● If possible, grab a quick 10-20 minute catnap

● Keep up with regular workouts for better nighttime sleep quality

It's amazing how these simple shifts can boost your energy, digestion, and focus for the rest of the day!
