What to eat before a big meeting to remain sharp and focused

Almost nobody I know prepares for a large meeting or presentation by thinking about nutrition preparation. Most are honing PowerPoint slides and talking to themselves in a mirror.

But, if you want to remain sharp and focused in that meeting, how about seeking out foods to eat beforehand that will give you the mental edge as that competing salesperson drones on about quota smashing?

Try some mango salsa on whole-wheat bread along with a fresh dash of blueberries on the side. Also, an entree of chicken may help cognitive performance, seeing as poultry proteins help get some needed neurotransmitters firing as good as they can be.
