For my friends with fibromyalgia and/or chronic fatigue syndrome here are some pointers on how to increase your energy. We definitely have problems in the energy category so I hope this article can make a difference.

11 Fail Proof Habits for Producing a Floodgate of Energy By: George Alarcon

Feel less tired, more alive, and energized by adopting the following energy boosting strategies: * Always eat breakfast Believe it or not, the first meal of the day is the most important one which provides your body the required fuel to keep you going throughout the day. Never miss breakfast; snack on an energy bar, a banana or apple, or drink a gl*** of juice, if you’re in a hurry. * Eat smaller meals and more often Studies have proven that by eating smaller and healthier meals actually give you more energy as opposed to bigger meals which often make you feel tired and sleepy! Try to eat a healthy snack every four hours to maintain your energy levels. * Exercise! Walk, jog, or cycle at least fifteen minutes everyday. Any kind of physical activity will boost your energy levels. Find time between breaks, cl***es, before or after work. Plan ahead and establish a schedule for exercising. You’ll notice an immediate difference in energy! * Feed your cells! If you feel run down and extreme fatigue often or just sometimes, this may be a sure sign that the cells in your body are not receiving enough nutrients. When our body does not get its required dosage of nutrients from our diet, we become exhausted much faster. A powerful way to feel more energized is to supplement our diet with Cellfood. Personally, I take Cellfood every day like clockwork; because of Cellfood I feel more energetic, I sleep less, and I don’t easily get so tired. For information on Cellfood go to: http://www.chronic-fatigue-aid.com/cfs_articles.html * High energy foods Consider adding high energy foods to your diet such as low-fat cheese, milk, yogurt, beans, eggs, fish, poultry, and lean meat. * Hoodia Gordonii To get an added natural flow of energy, consider taking Hoodia Gordonii. This amazing cactus-looking plant is fast becoming popular around the world. To learn all of its benefits, you can visit: http://www.hoodia-way.com * Juice Drink a whole gl*** of organic apple or pure orange juice. These two will provide you with plenty of energy, especially when you are running low! * Water Drink water on a regular basis. * Reduce caffeine consumption! A great way to help maintain your energy levels is to reduce or eliminate caffeine from your diet. Remember: caffeine is a stimulant and will make you jittery. * Vitamins Take supplements of vitamins C, E, and B6. Or, eat foods rich in these vitamins like oranges, almonds, peanuts, and pecans. * Minerals Take iron as a supplement; it will boost your overall energy. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- George Alarcon runs http://www.chronic-fatigue-aid.com where he offers highly effective treatments for conquering extreme fatigue and successfully treating chronic fatigue syndrome—for free. __________________________________________________________________ http://www.bizzyblogz.com/fibromyalgia
