And yet just this morning that had a segment to show downtime, specifically vacations, are important to productivity.
I don't think there is a special elixir...just how you work is the best way to work.

Having at least some type of vacation time is a real boon for productivity -- especially for me. I went for almost 2 years before having a REAL, non-working vacation. Now that I'm back, I've already nailed down the final details for one project, and am working the kinks into two more.

I'm on a huge foodie change at the moment.
The biggest change I've made is, getting up earlier, having a substantial breakfast and I already feel way better have 3 weeks of that, more awake/energetic during the day, more productive.
-
I generally fall into the camp of "obey your body"... If my brain is on a roll, then I'll stop when it finishes or my bladder gets its attention.

I'm the opposite. Breakfast makes me tired all day. And hungry too, so much more hungry when I eat breakfast.

My bowl of porridge with a banana keeps me till lunch
Salad then with chicken/tuna/ham
Dinner in the evening, no more snacking.
Oh and lots and lots of water through the day.

My wife hates this. I don't generally eat lunch during the work day. 80% of the time I just forget about it and work through it.
Same, and my wife hates it too.

I skipped the wife and it's turned out ok so far.
I am jealous of the dual income though.

Just doesn't always work as expected. Same situation here.

We had dual income for a few years, but only a few. Like 2006 - 2008. Outside of that have always been single income.

I leave work to be by myself during lunch, even if I only drink a bottle of Soylent. Removing myself for some alone time really helps me out.
Soylent, bourbon... same difference.

It's incredibly important that I get my arse out of the building for an hour as well

Exactly. No matter what, I'm gonna go away from my desk for an hour every day. Even if I just sit in my car and nap, I get out for a while every day. No exceptions.
