Low-Carb Breakfast and Lunch
Keep carbohydrate intake low or absent during the day, especially at breakfast and lunch, and favor meals built around protein, moderate fat, and non-starchy foods. The idea is to reduce post-meal sluggishness and support sustained wakefulness, focus, and attention by biasing the body toward a more alert, catecholamine-friendly state.
