Energize Me

Options
So I live a very on-the-go type of life and seem to really be lacking energy lately. Does anyone have any recommendations for how to stay energized throughout the day?

    I USUALLY get 8 hours of sleep. I also excercise every morning to wake me up. I really have become a caffeine hollic but it is not helping much. I avoid energy drinks because I dont really want to resort to that, but I drink a lot of coffee.

    Make sure you eat your snacks during the day, try some protein...I try to eat at least a little something every 2 to 3 hours...Best to you always...Rick

    I have found in the last few weeks that too much caffeine makes me feel awful when I work out, so I'm eating a lot more fresh fruit. I get a nice boost from the fructose, but its still lowcal and I don't feel like I'm crashing later.

    Also, if you're not taking a multi-vitamin, it might be you're not getting enough nutrients...I also take a B-complex supplement, it helps sustain my energy.

    Emergen C packets! it's like 1000 mg of vitamin c in one packet and i've noticed it really boosts my energy too.
