Falling asleep at your desk: Tempting, but inadvisable. Luckily, you can conquer the midday slump!

Male: Ever wonder why the tortoise actually beat the hair? Maybe it had to do with what he ate for lunch that day. Female: If you are prone to low energy levels, you might rethink what you eat at your midday meal. If your plate is full of carbs, you are going to feel sleepy soon. That is because carbohydrates are full of serotonin, a sleeping dousing chemical. A better of that is to bring on the protein. Try peanut butter and celery sticks, a hard boiled egg and tuna salad or beef chilly. The tyrosine in these foods increases your alertness and energy levels big time, save the bread for that sandwich or the roll with that soup for your evening meal, when you are actually ready to nod off. The simple twick is easy to make and may have you crawling quickly toward a big promotion.
