TRY THIS: Eat breakfast every day for a week and see if it helps with that mid-morning mood/energy dip. Suggestions include: porridge, wholegrain cereals or ‘live’ yoghurt, with fresh or dried fruit, nuts and seeds, or wholemeal bread plus nut or seed butters and sugar-free jam.

‘What also helped me was to replace my mid-afternoon cake or biscuit with apple and nuts, and this was easy because the effect was immediate.’Food and Mood Survey participant
