[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here... thanks for all the replies! Any ideas on how to naturally boost energy from about lunchtime til 3pm? This time does not work well for my DC, esp if the class/teacher is very boring. :D I hate the thought of him nodding off although I'm pretty sure other kids are sleeping too. After he gets through these next couple months, I think it's time for the some etiquette training before heading off to college. lol[/quote] I agree with PP about going to bed earlier. Is DS open to trying to avoid carbs at lunch and opting for protein? Some people have a carb crash after lunch. It might be worth testing for a week to see if makes a difference for afternoon? Can DS get any exercise at lunchtime? Brisk walk? Ideally moving around would be a healthy way to stay more alert, but I just don't know that it's practical. And of course there is the cup of coffee/tea/can of soda option...[/quote]
