Work-in of the week
Happy National Oyster Day this August 5th! It's the perfect excuse to celebrate one of nature’s most nutrient-dense, low-calorie superfoods. Though we imagine it’s quite difficult to get hold of oysters in most work places (maybe even the local seafood market?), we thought we’d give you a few facts.
Oysters are antioxidants and fish in anti-inflammatory Omega 3
Oysters are the ultimate dietary source of immune-boosting zinc, and a single serving delivers massive doses of vitamin B12, iron, and selenium for sustained energy and brain health. Packed with high-quality protein, anti-inflammatory omega-3s, and a unique liver-protecting antioxidant called DHMBA, they are as incredibly healthy as they are delicious.
Early Morning Sun
10mins of early morning sun as soon after waking as possible
Ensure this is direct sunlight without sunglasses
This ensures you are wide awake for peak performance during the day (+79% better at decision making than no daylight) and increases the chance you can drop off easily with sound sleep the following night
Progressions
- If its cloudy or completely overcast go for 20-30mins daylight exposure
