If you are a pure vegetarian, you may like to read

the Vegetarians Version along with details here....

Ever felt sleepy after a large

meal???? Well imagine it is not just your body but your

brain feeling equally sluggish.... This is the last thing you

would want during exam time.... Let me share someeasy to use tips about eating habits during exams to

keep you and your brain extremely productive.... Eating

a balanced diet is the key....

FFFFeeeeeeeedddd YYYYoooouuuurrrr BBBBooooddddyyyy aaaannnndddd YYYYoooouuuurrrr BBBBrrrraaaaiiiinnnn

Diet forms a big role in your preparation for the exam

day.... You need to keep up the energy levels high, your



alertness and your concentration at the maximum and

improve your memory as well.... Ensure you keep

drinking fluids throughout the day.... Three big meals aday will make you sluggish mentally and physically....

Eat 5 smaller portions at regular intervals, i.e. every

three hours.... Fluids should be taken more frequently....

Find below suggestions on what to eat at what time of

the day....

BBBBrrrreeeeaaaakkkkf ff faaaasssstttt

Have breakfast, it is the most important meal of the

day.... Breakfast should be high on protein and low on

carbohydrates and full of vitamins, minerals and

essential fats....

10-15 soaked almonds

1 large glass of Skimmed Milk (avoid whole fat

milk)

Cheese and Wholegrain toast

Banana

MMMMiiiidddd----mmmmoooorrrrnnnniiiinnnngggg

Very small portion with natural sugars only to keep

you going till lunch....

Banana

Dried Dates or apricots



Carrots or Carrot Juice

Walnuts or almonds

LLLLuuuunnnncccchhhh

Keep the lunch also low on carbohydrates and fats in

order to not make you sluggish.... Keep the portions

also small.... High protein foods like meat, fish, poultry,

cheese and eggs stimulate the brain so are better for

use at lunchtime.... Keep a salad portion to get thevitamins and minerals and a wholegrain bread for the

carbohydrates.... Very colorful vegetables are great like

spinach, bell peppers, broccoli and carrots....

EEEEvvvveeeennnniiiinnnngggg

Or should I say mid afternoon!!!! You can opt or

vegetables to munch on like carrots, radishes, celery....Proteins like cheese, boiled egg are a good option....

Add a fruit for necessary sugars. Ginger tea (ginger

boiled in water with honey) is great too....

DDDDiiiinnnnnnnneeeerrrr

Starchy foods like pasta, rice and bread trigger the

release of the hormone serotonin from the brain,which is relaxin and re ares ou for slee .... Dinner



time is a good time to have this. Also ensure you have

your dinner at least 2 hours before sleep.... Keep a

portion of salad again. Desserts, low on sugar and fats,are allowed but in a very small portion....

SSSSnnnnaaaacccckkkk SSSSmmmmaaaarrrrtttt

You need to keep you going throughout the day.... You

should also get nutrients and keep your blood sugar

level stable.... Keep nuts and light crackers handy.

FFFFooooooooddddssss ttttoooo AAAAvvvvooooiiiiddddCertain food are really bad f or your concentration and

retention powers during exam time....

Avoid candy bars, chocolates or sweets.... They do

give you a kick right after eating but after some

time the blood sugar levels swoop and you feellike on a roller coaster....

Cut back on caffeine. Small quantity is great to

give you a boost, more will give you jitters

Avoid fast food and fried food, chips and toffees,

apart from making your brain sluggish they willgive you extra calories which you are burning due

low physical activities in exam days....

CCCCoooonnnncccceeeepppptttt bbbbeeeehhhhiiiinnnndddd tttthhhheeee ddddiiiieeeetttt

PPPPrrrrooootttteeeeiiiinnnnssss



Proteins, the essential brain food, upon digestion are

broken down into amino acids that feed the brain....

They help you concentrate, keep you alert during anexam and fill you up without making you sluggish....

CCCCaaaarrrrbbbboooohhhhyyyyddddrrrraaaatttteeeessss

Carbohydrates in a moderate quantity helps you

provide requisite energy to endure long exam keeping

anxiety away.... Carbohydrates help absorb tryptophan,

which is a substance that is converted into serotoninwithin the brain.... This even helps you relax and think

clearly through your exam.... Carbohydrate heavy diet

can be taken at dinner time to prepare your body for

proper rest at sleep....

VVVViiiittttaaaammmmiiiinnnnssss aaaannnndddd MMMMiiiinnnneeeerrrraaaallllssss

You need healthy body and brain and vitamins arethe key there.... B vitamins such as folic acid, B12 and

B6 play an important role in the functioning of the

brain messages that are sent back and forth

throughout the body.... Lack of iron and folic acid in a

diet affects the mental powers, as these are needed to

make sure there is sufficient oxygen in their blood....

FFFFaaaattttssss

Some fats are good!!!! Omega-3 fatty acids contains

DHA , which covers 40% of the brain.... Fats help the

little messengers in the brain regulate certain aspects

of the body such as blood circulation, memory andthe immune system.... Omega-3 fatty acids rich food



should be included in your diet.... For example, walnuts,

salmon, tuna and soybeans (excellent for vegetarians

due to the variety it provides)....FFFFlllluuuuiiiiddddssss

Stay hydrated and drink at least 7-8 glasses of fluid,

mostly water but including weak tea, herb teas,

natural (not preserved) fruit and vegetable juices and

not more than two cups of coffee....
