Instead of reaching for coffee to keep you alert, consider changing to high-energy eating. These seven steps will give you enough vroom-vroom-vroom to tackle all your daily duties--with some to spare!

1 minimize your meals

The first easy step is to divide a normal meal into a mini-meal and a snack. "A little food gives you a lot of energy; too much food and your energy crashes," explains nutritionist Debra Waterhouse, MPH, RD, in her book Outsmarting Female Fatigue.
