Reply to comment by iHateReddit_srsly in Study demonstrates that how effectively an individual awakens in the hours following sleep is associated four independent factors: sleep quantity/quality the night before, physical activity the day prior, a breakfast rich in carbohydrate, and a lower blood glucose response following breakfast. by the_phet
Sleep a little later than normal, go to bed slightly later than normal, eat a high carb breakfast and you will never alert for 3-4 hours. Being depressed and anxious are kind of bad, alcohol and caffeine had surprisingly little influence.

Anyone else shocked by the high-protein vs. high carb effect on subsequent alertness? I have always assumed that the high protein would result in the best alertness for the longest period of time, but take a bit longer to peak.

We do research to find out if common sense is correct, sometimes it isn’t. In this case, nwhat you view as common sense was found to be incorrect.
