2. Keeping Water Bottles At The Work Desk
It is always advisable to stay hydrated at work to avoid a lot of health issues. Dehydration may lead to loss of strength and stamina, which is a must at the workplace to deliver efficient work output. Also, health problems like constipation, kidney related diseases and muscle damages can be avoided by drinking a lot of fluids. At the office, where one spends the maximum part of his life, it is always better to carry a water bottle, a handy way to keep oneself hydrated.

4. Having Fruits
Fruits are the best alternative to mindless nibbling. Being rich in fibre content and packed with the best nutritional benefits which nature can offer, grabbing a fruit while going off to office is a very intelligent choice. Fruits coupled with a glass of milk can go a long way in making your body free of vitamin and mineral deficiencies.
