1. Sugar:

Sugar is hijacking your brain.

Excessive sugar intake can lead to energy crashes, mood swings, and brain fog.

Replace with:

• Kiwi's

• Apples

• Cherry's

• Oranges

• Mangoes

• Pineapples

2. Processed Junk:

Conveniently packaged snacks and fast food meals might seem harmless, but they're a trap.

Loaded with artificial flavours, preservatives, and unhealthy fats, they leave you feeling sluggish and unproductive.

Replace with:

• Real, homemade healthy foods

3. Caffeine Jitters:

Coffee is the elixir of productivity.

But beware, too much caffeine can turn your focus into a rollercoaster.

Try alternatives:

• Herbal tea

• Decaffeinated coffee

• Or green smoothies for a natural energy boost

And stay hydrated with water.

4. Greasy Delights:

Foods high in saturated fats like deep-fried meals can impede blood flow to your brain, leading to sluggishness and hampering your ability to think clearly.

Your mind deserves a healthier feast.

• Choose baked or grilled options instead of deep-fried

5. Sodium:

Excessive sodium can mess with your creativity and focus.

It disrupts the balance in your brain, causing dehydration, fatigue, and poor cognitive performance.

• Flavor your meals with herbs, spices, and natural seasonings instead of excessive salt

6. Artificial Sweeteners:

Zero-calorie, but at what cost? Artificial sweeteners like aspartame and sucralose can mess with your brain's reward system, leaving you craving more sugar and potentially affecting your focus.

Replace with:

• Raw honey

• Maple syrup

• Or dates

7. Alcohol:

Finally, we come to the party pooper—alcohol.

While indulging in a drink alcohol, it can impair your cognitive abilities, creativity, and overall mental sharpness.

Substitute with:

• Infused water

• Sparkling water

• Or fruit juice
