Guys, Got a question.

When I am working, and got things to do..I wont feel sleepy..
BUT, when Im idle (say in a meeting) I will 80% of the time sleep off!
Some say its the lvl of Histamin in our body that affects this?

Or wat other vitamins can reduce such effect of sleepiness?

for people who drink coffee 2-3 times a day it wont work, they could drink it 10 minutes before sleeping and have no issues sleeping.

also, coffee is bad for your bones.

Vitamin E is helpful. It is one of those u are not advised to take at night as it will cause insomnia. HIgh levels of alertness after eating it.

BTW are u overweight? It may be sleep apnea,which can cause heart problems later.

For me, i feel sleepy when i'm bored. Rearranging my sleep rhythm works though. Try staying up LATE and getting up early for a few days, then go to bed early and get up at your usual time. Finding something to occupy you during a looooong boring meeting might also work. Excuse yourself halfway, walk out and stand on your head biggrin.gif

I'm serious, i really do that. Then again, i do capoeira so you might want to find something a little less extreme.

P.S. : I'm also around 169 cm and 57-58 kg
