6 Tips to Fight Fatigue

If you’re tired all the time, it might not just be from lack of sleep. Fatigue symptoms
include inability to handle stress, decreased energy, and lack of motivation. But it
doesn't have to last forever. Understanding the causes of why you’re tired (besides the
fact that you’re constantly busy) can lead to some quick and easy solutions. Here are
some simple ways to fix your fatigue.

Sleep and Exercise at the Right Times
Feeling tired all the time isn't necessarily about how much sleep you're getting,
it can also be about when you're sleeping—as well as being active. The
average adult needs 7-9 hours of sleep per night, but that's sometimes easier
said than done. Being in bed by 10 p.m. and rising at 6 a.m. will follow your
natural circadian rhythm, whereby your adrenal glands are at their highest
output in the morning and their lowest output at midnight. Exercising in the
morning rather than the evening will prevent your adrenal glands from kicking
into high gear late in the day when they should be winding down instead.

Eat Protein Instead of Sugar


You may be feeling fatigued because of the food you're eating. Food has a
direct effect on your blood sugar levels, which in turn affect your body's insulin
production. Short-term spikes in blood sugar can contribute to a feeling of
exhaustion, and consistent blood sugar spikes over a period of several years
can even contribute to diabetes and obesity! Aim to eat 90-120 grams of protein
per day, spread evenly among meals and small snacks. Getting 30 grams of
protein with breakfast, such as in a protein shake, egg white omelet, or turkey
sausage is a great start to your day. Then, make sure you're eating protein
lunch and dinner (a chicken breast or hamburger patty are each about 30 grams
of protein). Consistent protein intake will also help stave off sugar cravings! If
you feel tired in the middle of the day, sugar is actually one of the worst things
you can eat. It messes with your blood sugar levels and gives you a sense of
“false energy” that will only cause you to crash and burn.

Watch Your Coffee Intake


You probably don't want to hear this, but coffee may be making you more tired.
Caffeine aggravates the adrenal glands, forcing them to work overtime even
when they've already reached their limit. If you can wait until after your protein-
packed breakfast before drinking that first cup of coffee, you may feel less tired
during the day. That's because, by eating first, you will have replenished your
body's natural energy resources and the coffee won't be so hard on your
system. Drinking tea instead, especially green tea, will allow for a more gradual
caffeine lift. Avoid all caffeine after 2 or 3 p.m.

See Also: Why Am I Still So Tired?

Try Vitamin B
If you're always exhausted, Vitamin B12 might be able to help. This nutrient is
found naturally in meat, fish, eggs, and dairy, but you may want to consider
taking it in pill form, such as in a B complex vitamin. Taken with breakfast or
lunch, you may find that B12 keeps your energy level high throughout the day.
Two groups of people who are often deficient in Vitamin B are vegetarians and
women taking hormonal birth control. Who knew?

Seek Medical Care


If you still feel tired after implementing some of the above suggestions, your
fatigue could be the sign of a medical condition such as gluten sensitivity,
anemia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, mononucleosis, diabetes, hypoglycemia, or
hypothyroidism. Consult your doctor for more information.
