Productivity is not a talent I possess naturally. We've all been there, sat at the desk for hours, and only have the title and page number down. However, there's a pretty simple and tasty solution to this problem! Here are six food/drink items that are scientifically proven to help you concentrate.
Eggs 🥚
Eating eggs regularly may not be great for your breath, however it's scientifically proven to improve your mood and memory. Boiled eggs are an easy snack to prepare beforehand and goes very well with the spinach further down the list.
Dishes that include egg; Omelette, Scrambled egg on toast, Poached eggs
Bananas 🍌
My favourite fruit, bananas are the ultimate snack to boost concentration and happiness throughout the day.
Used in many recipes, bananas are a great source of potassium that help the heart, brain and nerves stay in great condition.

Green Tea ☕
If water isn't your speed then give green tea a try! With less caffeine to prevent headaches, green tea is a great alternative to your morning coffee.
Containing the chemical "theanine", green tea is great for boosting your focus an alertness.
Spinach 🥬
It's recommended by professionals that you eat spinach at least three times a week. This super vegetable is also known to prevent dementia at an older age.
It blends really well with all manner of ingredients making it very versatile.

Water 💧
Being thirsty benefits absolutely no one so drinking a simple glass of water can be incredibly helpful. You can add a squirt of lemon if you don't fancy just your basic tap water.
Porridge 🥣
According to Google, its proven by science that breakfast eaters are at a lower risk of developing obesity, hypertension & diabetes. You can use porridge oats in so many more ways than just making your basic oatmeal. You can use it in all manner of dishes both sweet and savoury, making it one of the more versatile breakfast foods.
