EDIT: What makes me LOL is that the OP signed off 2 minutes after making this thread and hasn't been back since, over half a year ago.

My daily diet consists of 70% protein, 20% carb, 10% fats. This with ZERO exercise dropped me 20lbs, and mentally I feel as good as I did 20 years ago.
Although my recent 54 on tech writing would not reflect that! hilarious
Do you have a written diet plan?

That's all I needed to hear. I'm off to buy some salmon for dinner. I don't want any ram damage.

My brain is the sharpest in the morning. As far as food goes don't eat too much. Once I had to reschedule a morning test to the afternoon right after lunch and I ate my fill (big mistake, but how often can you eat 'only' a little bit of pizza?
). Half way through the test my mind started bogging down and I was getting drowsy. I don't drink caffeinated beverages because caffeine makes me drowsy but unable to sleep, It's torture.

Good quote. I kinda like this one, on the same subject - strength from Above. It's the motto of a Christian (unaccredited) school - offering Martial Arts degrees including a Doctorate: The Gospel Martial Arts Union.
Their motto: "Blessed be the Lord, my strength, which teacheth my hand to war and my fingers to fight." (Psalm 144:1)
I'm not recommending an unaccred. school here - but if you're curious about them, they're at Gospel Martial Arts Union

Tuna helps your brain (or take some fish oil pills!)

The brain may be a hungry organ, itâs cells requiring two fold the quantity of energy than that of different cells within the body. to figure well and expeditiously throughout the day, this energy state should be unbroken high enough thus to not cause mental stress and exhaustion.
So weâll check up on straightforward ways in which to stay your brain operating effectively throughout your day thus your work doesnât suffer. once the brain doesnât become stressed it will work endlessly thus to not sabotage your daily work flow. For this discussion we are going to assume you're employed most of the day, morning to evening.
