Stress Busting Nutrition - Top 3 tips.
Combat the symptoms of work-related stress with good nutrition.
- Keep your blood sugar steady by eating little and often: 3 moderate sized, well balanced meals + 2 healthy snacks. If your blood sugar drops too low, your stress hormones will rise.
- If you refuel on strong coffee and so-called energy drinks, be aware that all that caffeine can leave you feeling wired, anxious and unfocused – but cut back gradually to avoid withdrawal headaches.
- Eat your greens! Green veg are rich in magnesium which is needed to enable your muscles to relax and ease physical tension.
