Q: Hey all, I'm working as a waitress and often times I get soooo tired because I normally dont get off work untill about one in the morning. Anyways, I was wondering if there were any types of things I can take or do to boost my energy?? I havnt drinkin' any carbonated beverages for over 2 years, so those drinks are out, and when I take caffine pills, or energy pills, they make me sick. Its so anoying!!! Anyways, this is an easy five question and any help would be great!! Thanks

A few tips for boosting your energy:
1. Take a walk or get some form of activity during your lunch break. Even a 15-minute walk can greatly enhance your energy level.
2. Drink more water. Dehydration can often leave you feeling sluggish.
3. Choose lunch options wisely. High-fat or high-carbohydrate meals may leave you feeling sleepy.
4. Grab an afternoon snack. Low blood sugar can often contribute to lack of energy and difficulty concentrating. Choose a snack that's not high in sugar.
5. Take a quick nap before work. A brief 15- to 20-minute catnap can be time well spent.
6. Go outdoors. A few minutes of fresh air and natural light can work wonders.
7. Spray a rejuvenating aromatherapy mist on your face or in your room. There are many kinds of sprays with fragrances like rosemary or cinnamon clove that smell and feel invigorating.
8. Caffeine drinks work wonders. I know you said you don't drink them anymore, but really, they are the best solution of all. Red Bull keeps you awake for up to 7 hours.
Hope I helped.
