A lot of people feel like they’re in a tired stupor between 4 and 5 p.m.
\nevery day. Many make the mistake of eating candy or fatty stuff to get
\nan energy boost. The secret is that many times that slump comes
\nbecause we’re really thirsty! Drink a big glass of water, and see what
\nhappens.<\/p>\n
Other possible causes of afternoon energy slumps could be a general lack
\nof exercise. Make sure to enjoy daily physical activities. Go move
\nyour body for 10 minutes. Get some fresh air. Try walking up a few
\nflights of stairs or around the block. Dance to a couple of tunes. Bounce a ball around.
\nYour blood sugar could also be a little low. When is the last time you
\nate something? More than two hours ago? Have a small fruit or cracker
\nsnack, and a big glass of water. Get some food, water, and air into your
\nblood stream.

\nin store for you. Most of us need to consistently get 7+ hours of
\nsleep.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
