How To: Avoid A Mid Morning Energy Slump


Avoid a mid morning energy crash by opting for a breakfast based on unrefined starch. Poached or scrambled eggs on wholewheat or granary toast, fruit, and plain porridge with semi-skimmed milk, will all provide a steady release of energy and prevent the slump in blood sugar that causes energy to diminish.

Top Tip: Avoid common breakfast options such as sugary and processed cereals, muffins and sugary spreads which are just a selection of the culprits responsible for a mid morning energy slump. These food sources with minimal nutritional value may provide an instant surge of energy as blood sugar peaks, but will force your sugar levels to crash within hours.
