Factors such as size of meals and circadian rhythms, the body's internal clock, also can affect eating patterns as well as alertness and performance.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/fea/healthyliving2/stories/DN-nh_rhythms_0708liv.ART.State.Edition1.4d99169.html"><P> For example, consuming a large lunch of 1,000 calories has been associated with decreased performance during the afternoon. Meals high in calories tend to also be higher in fat, and fat slows down the absorption of food. The result is that blood flow to the stomach increases for a longer period of time while blood flow to the brain decreases, resulting in a sleepy feeling.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/fea/healthyliving2/stories/DN-nh_rhythms_0708liv.ART.State.Edition1.4d99169.html"><P> Circadian rhythms are the changes in mental and physical characteristics that occur in the course of a day. These rhythms influence when individuals are more active and when they are more likely to be sleepy.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/fea/healthyliving2/stories/DN-nh_rhythms_0708liv.ART.State.Edition1.4d99169.html">Along with a calming affect, the brain chemical serotonin is also an appetite suppressant. </blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;"> </td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/90EF1FAA-5A4A-4C14-B9F7-A2D8019378BD/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
