• Having a proactive and positive attitude in the workplace as well as at home helps to face the various commitments with more serenity.
• Stay “active”: take advantage of the last summer period to participate in events, evenings with friends, concerts, etc. after work.
• A balanced diet based on whole grains, seasonal fruits and vegetables, white meats, fish and legumes, is fundamental for energy production and is always a good start to feel good.
• Practicing sport is an energy boost! Physical activity, as well as nutrition, represents a fundamental point for your well-being.
• Natural energy drinks: you can boil water and put your favorite herb tea with some honey. This will give you comfort and will produce energy. 
• Food supplements to overcome fatigue, specially formulated to help the body feel better and have more energy.

Which are the best natural supplements?

Every year, in this period, the research on Google increases exponentially for “fatigue supplements” or “natural remedies for vitality and energy”. To combat tiredness and sleepiness, surely the most valid method is to use supplements to fight fatigue. Let’s see together which are the best and why.

• Fish oil is rich in Omega 3, good fatty acids that have numerous biological effects. Fish oil fatigue supplements decrease blood levels of triglycerides, have antiarrhythmic, anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties and induce beneficial effects on the musculoskeletal, gastrointestinal, nervous and immune systems.
• Royal jelly, composed of water, proteins, glucides, lipids and other nutritional factors (including vitamins, minerals and phytosterols) has always been used for its restorative and nourishing activity, useful both in school-age and for the elderly. Royal jelly strengthens defenses and increases resistance to efforts.
• A cure-all for physical and mental fatigue is Maca, an Andean tuber. It has well-known tonic-adaptogenic properties that can be used safely even in children. This is because its effect would not be due to a stimulation of the central nervous system, but to an improvement in energy performance, which reduces physical and mental fatigue.
  
• The B group vitamins play an essential role in the proper functioning of the digestive system, the nervous system, and energy exchange. They are fundamental in the support during moments of debilitation.
  
• The artichoke can be particularly useful for its purifying and detoxifying liver action. Furthermore, let’s not forget the energy that it can offer, in a moment of fatigue like this, thanks to its rich phytonutrient content.

Taken individually or even better associated with each other, they can be very useful as natural remedies for physical and mental fatigue (in particular that of students), in the event of loss of immune defenses, in the convalescence of both children and adults.
