There are days when we struggle to concentrate at work and all we want is to just pack our bags and leave. If you have been facing work blues lately, it could be because of the food you put in your body. However, lack of sleep and personnel problems can also be blamed for your wandering brain. There are a number of foods that can kill your focus and reduce productivity. If you have a big work deadline coming up, it’s advisable to avoid these focus-killing foods. Tuna: It is high in mercury, which in excess can cause cognitive decline. Soy Sauce: Research says too many salt and sodium-packed foods—like soy sauce—can restrict blood to the brain and impair focus, organizational skills and memory. Cured meats: Eating cured meats like prosciutto, bacon, capicolla and pastrami too often may cause dehydration and make your brain foggy. So, avoid salty meats during the working hours. Now, here are 5 foods that can help boost your productivity throughout the day as well as improve your concentration at work.

SCIENCE-BACKED WAYS TO BEAT MONDAY BLUES

Here are 7 science-backed ways to beat the Monday blues and start the week with a roar instead of a sigh:

Prepare for Monday on Friday

Try to complete as much work as possible on Friday afternoon to make Monday less stressful. This is one best way to combat that Monday morning anxiety.

Get a good night’s sleep

Don’t wake up till late on Sunday night. Go to bed a little earlier than normal on Sunday night so that you wake up feeling well-rested. Also wake up an extra 15 to 30 minutes early on Monday morning. This will give your body enough time to ease into the morning mood.

Meditate in the morning

Take out a few minutes in the morning to meditate or sit in silence. This will prepare your body form the busy day ahead.

Eat a balanced breakfast

Avoid having high sugar content and processed foods in the morning. Instead choose foods that will provide energy to keep you going until lunch.

Wear your favourite outfit

Not just this can help build your confidence around the office, you might also get a few compliments from co-workers, which will make you feel good.

Clear the clutter

Clear out your inbox and clean your desk before you get to work. Because researchers say outer clutter can directly contribute to inner chaos.

Be positive

Start the week with a positive attitude. Think about the things that you enjoy about work. Try listening to your favourite songs to light up your mood. Treat everyone with respect and remember to smile.
