Productivity hacks: 10 things to eat while you’re working

1. Multigrain crackers and peanut butter

This nutrient-rich snack can cut down your hunger and help to keep you full longer. Just don’t go overboard while spreading the peanut butter.

2. Trail mix 

Made of dried fruits, nuts and chocolate, it is easily one of the healthiest mixtures you can expect at work. Based on your preference, you can have your own personalized combination in the trail mix.

3. Fresh fruits (apples, oranges, banana, kiwi)

Need a protein and vitamin boost at work? Apples, grapes and bananas are good food to eat when you want to enjoy a food break.

4. Dried fruits (apricots, raisins and cherries) 

Dried fruits are a healthier alternative to crisps. They’re sweet and chewy and perfect for eating during working hours.

5. Dry cereals 

Dry cereals will supply your body with glucose to help you increase your concentration and focus. You wouldn’t want to slow down your pace, would you?

6. Low fat popcorn 

If it’s good enough for the movies, it’s good enough for work. Fat-free popcorn will definitely enhance your mood while at work. Add some shredded Parmesan if you want to.

7. Protein bar 

Don’t want to be caught by your colleagues for sleeping on the job, do you? Snack bars are loaded with sugar and proteins that help to fight your drowsiness.

8. Vegetables (carrots) and humus

Scooping up hummus with slices of carrots will surely be the highlight of your food experience in the office. Hummus is an all-rounder. Not only does it taste great but the chickpeas that it contains is a valuable source of soluble fiber.

9. Yogurt

Want to make your work place a food heaven? Stash yogurt in the office fridge.

10. Juice 

Sometimes, you’re thirsty as well. Juices are an apt way of quenching your thirst and supplying nutrition to the body.
