If you reach for a cup of coffee at mid-afternoon, you may not be making the best choice. Moderate consumption of caffeine can increase energy levels, but more of it can cause elevated blood pressure. The American Dietetic Association says that, coupled with stress, may increase the risk of heart disease.
Try water instead. It’s necessary for digestion and maintaining normal body temperature. Since mild dehydration can bring on fatigue, it’s wise to reach for some nice cold water next time you feel sluggish at work.
About Admin
As a Christian mom of 3, I am always finding new ways to help the busy mommy. Our life on our small farm in East Tennessee affords me the opportunity to appreciate the value of hard work, family, and all that has been given to us. As some may know though, life on a farm is always busy. The Busy Moms blog was created as a place to share the lessons I learn for mothers much like myself. It takes a community to raise a family and the blogging community offers this community. Share with me your stories of being a Busy Mom and tips you have found along the way.
