Water instead
of coffee
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
