Avocado

This green vegetable is packed with fiber and monounsaturated fat. Because of all that fiber it takes longer for your body to digest, which means it keeps you full longer.

Almonds

Wash it all Down with Water

Okay, so this is more drink than snack, but it’s still an important element to consumer during your work day. The most common form of fatigue is dehydration. Keep yourself properly hydrated by washing all those yummy snacks down with water. As a bonus the water will help you going curb junk food cravings.
