Do you dread public speaking? Eating this could help...

If you’re expected to speak publicly, you’ll need to do more than practice your lines. 

You’ll need to prep your mouth. It’s natural to feel nervous, most people do – just don’t SOUND nervous. Dry mouth can strike when you’re feeling stressed or tense and make that speech feel, and sound, like it’s never going to end. You’ll want to skip all dairy products before your big moment and avoid cold drinks too. Those can tighten up your vocal equipment.

Consider eating an apple before you take the stage. It will give your mouth a good workout and help to make it feel and sound clean and fresh. If you find yourself drying up at the last minute, gently bite down on the sides of your tongue. That will unleash the saliva you’ll need to get started.
