Breakfast

As the name implies, breakfast breaks the overnight fast that occurs when your body sleeps. Consuming breakfast can boost energy levels, improve focus, and prevent overeating.

Caffeine

Caffeine is a stimulant that speeds up the central nervous system and boosts energy levels. Caffeine can improve energy levels, stimulate brain function, and decrease the risk of type two diabetes, strokes, and cancers.

Sleep

Sleep is a state of reduced mental and physical activity where consciousness is altered and sensory activity is inhibited to a certain extent. Sleep aids in physical and mental restoration, emotional regulation, immune function, weight management, and improved energy levels.
