Snacking is probably one of the most common fixes for your mid-afternoon, post-lunch coma. But, if you load up on soda, coffee or sweets, you aren’t helping yourself stay alert. Sugary snacks and caffeine give you an instant buzz, but beware of the crash coming later.
Instead, Buzzfeed has a few healthier suggestions to keep you feeling full without causing a late-afternoon slump.
- Pack your salad in a mason jar so you can shake it up. They’re also great for portability!
- Wrap a sliced apple in a rubber band to keep it fresh and transport it with ease.
- Microwave scrambled eggs in the morning ““ no stove required!
Buzzfeed also suggests using a USB-powered mini-fridge to keep a can of soda ice cold. However, we suggest (if you really want to show off this cool gadget) refrigerating a cup of low-fat yogurt.
