[QUOTE="Omega man, post: 722051, member: 19470"] [FONT=Tahoma]There is also something involved that can't be easily quantified. Most drivers are slower after they stop and eat. After eating, more blood flow goes to the stomach and is less available to supply oxygen to muscles. The type of food you eat on lunch also matters. If you eat foods that are high in sugar or flour like pasta, this makes the pancreas produce and release insulin into the blood stream.[/FONT][FONT=Arial] Then a [/FONT][FONT=Tahoma]protein-building block called tryptophan moves to the brain and [/FONT][FONT=Tahoma]is converted into serotonin. [/FONT][FONT=Tahoma]Serotonin makes you tired and makes you crave a nap.[/FONT][FONT=Tahoma]This is why many people feel sleepy after they eat. So, the earlier in the day that you eat, the longer you have afterwards working at a diminished ability to perform for UPS resulting in being less productive for the day.[/FONT] [/QUOTE]
