Tips to Keep Your Energy Consistent Throughout the Day

To maintain consistent energy levels throughout the day, it's essential to feed your brain with glucose, adequate sleep, and moments of daydreaming. Glucose, obtained from complex carbohydrates like whole grains, supports decision-making in the brain without causing blood sugar spikes. Sleep allows the brain to rest and recover, aiding in focus and energy levels. Daydreaming serves as a break to recharge the brain, promoting relaxation and improved productivity.
