feeling weak

Hi, lately I've been feeling weak, not motivated to do anything. Are there any herbal suppliments out there to boost energy?

I used to feel the same way. Are you exercising? You should try running a few days a week, maybe start by walking if you're not up to running just yet.

Try changing your diet if needed.. cut out the junk food and soda. Along with a better diet, try taking a multi-vitaman. I use and suggest Centrum Performance.

Lastly, don't stay up way too late and get plenty of sleep. At least for me, I feel better if I sleep from midnight to 8am, than if I'm up to 4am and sleep till noon. Try to keep a regular sleep pattern too.

If you can do all of that, I can pretty much guarantee that you will feel better, and after a while you'll probably look better too!

.. To be honest it pissed me off that some people actually answer that you have to eat pills of any kind to get energy! ..
Eat your food right, go to bed in time, and get up early. Get a good life cyclus, and once again, Eat eat eat! ..
Its all in the food, you have no need for pills or drinks, or or or, If you just eat the right food. And ironicly enough, the best food is the cheap food, eat Pasta, eat Salads for the fibres, Lots of fruit for the different sugars that fruit can give you.

It has been proven that over 50% of the energy or strength you get from different pills is mental.
You know you just ate a bunch of pills that gives you more energy, so your brain reacts to that by giving you more energy. Cause you don't wanna get disapointed. (basicly)

So my answer to this will be: Eat the right food, at the right time. Eat alot, and drink alot of water, Sodapops will only get you full untill the next meal, and it wont give you what you need.

(read)
I don't write that pills and energy drinks won't work. Im just saying it can be done elsehow.

Just stop being lazy, and start doing some mental preparation for your next exercise, it will enhance your performance more then you think

Were the beverages you used to drink caffeinated? Symptoms of caffeine withdrawal can last longer than the initial headaches you get a few days after quitting. You body might have gotten used to the extra energy the caffeine gave you. You'll adjust in time.

You sound like you're trying to eat healthier. Just make sure that you still get enough calories, and the right balance. When you change your diet, you can lose the balance of nutrients that your body needs. It can be an individual thing, so try to pay attention to what kinds of foods you seem to be craving.

Also, do you have any allergies? I tend to get very sluggish and exhausted when my allergies act up, even a little. Sometimes I don't even notice it other than the tiredness.

As for pills, I'd mostly recommend taking vitamins. Especially the B complex. They help in breaking down carbohydrates, so you can get more energy from the food you eat.

This tells you a little bit about eating certain foods for energy.
