Tips for Battling Fatigue
Drink more water. Being dehydrated can lead to low energy and decreases your ability to concentrate. Increase your water consumption by keeping a large reusable water bottle handy. Drinking sparkling water or adding fresh fruit to your glass can also motivate you to stay hydrated.
Make sleep a priority. With busy family schedule, pressing work demands and plenty of concerns about the future, many of us struggle to get enough uninterrupted sleep. Prioritize sleeping by setting a consistent bedtime and sticking to it. Adjusting the lighting, temperature and noise levels in your room can also help to improve your quality of sleep.
Avoid refined carbs. While it's true that carbohydrates provide a quick source of energy, the subsequent spike and drop in your blood sugar levels can leave you feeling even more fatigued. To maintain your energy throughout the day, replace sugar and refined carbs with whole foods that contain fiber, such as apples, avocados, raspberries, carrots, almonds, or pistachios.
