  Improving upon the results of Freiman and Candela-Serra-Spiegel, we show that
for a non-empty subset $A\subseteq\mathbb F_p$ with $p$ prime and
$|A|<0.0045p$, (i) if $|A+A|<2.59|A|-3$ and $|A|>100$, then $A$ is contained in
an arithmetic progression of size $|A+A|-|A|+1$, and (ii) if $|A-A|<2.6|A|-3$,
then $A$ is contained in an arithmetic progression of size $|A-A|-|A|+1$.
  The improvement comes from using the properties of higher energies.
