Is it trure eating sun flower seed help u stay up?

Question

my gramps said truckers do it 2 stay up

Answer 1

Probably. I have heard Doctors recommend eating them to smokers who are trying to quit. They claim the seeds have the same effect on the brains sensors as nicotine.

Answer 2

I have used this trick to stay up while studying. I canno think of any chemical reasons for it, I think the staying awake is brought on by the fact that we have engaged our fine motor skills, and our alimentary (digestive) system. Eating always stimulates your brain... think of all of the chewing that it taked to nibble little sunflower seeds, if you eat them one or just a few at a time, especially the ones in the shells) They will get your brain revved up due to the fact that your fine motor skills are being utilized at a steady pace.

I would also recommend bee pollen. It is knoown for helping one stay alert. I mix together bee pollen, honey, peanut butter, powdered sugar, powdered milk and dry cereal to make little snack balls. They are nutritious, a little crunchy, TASTY and a treat that stimulates your system as well. These are my smart snacks or study snacks. If these sound intersting, email me and I will get the recipe to you.

Hope this helps !!!
