Omega oils found in oily fish or capsule form are the best source of vitamins that will help with energy and concentration levels (basically good stuff for the brain!).\nGinko as a herbal remedy for tiredness although it does take a few days to kick in.\nIf you suspect mood problems may be hormonal try evening primrose and/or starflower oil.\nFor immediate effect you could try burning some reputable essential oils, the citrus type are excellent for increasing alertness. \nAbove all keep smiling, it releases your bodies own natural "happy hormone" seretonin, every time you do!!

Find something you're really interested in doing. Watch your favorite show, read something you love or just hang out here =) another useful thing might be yoga - once you learn it, you refresh whenever you want and feel like you are filled with energy =) I love that feeling

Monster and caffeine don't give you energy.  They spike up your blood pressure and heart rate, artificially keeping you awake.  However, you're not able to perform any better.  If anything, it's worse - you're too exhausted to concentrate but you can't sleep, ensuring you'll perform badly tomorrow.\n\nThe suggestions regarding vitamin B, etc are excellent, but in the end the only thing that will help are better study habits.  Eat balanced and healthy meals.  Get regular sleep.  You should have a regular bed time, and get no less than 7-8 hours of sleep a night.  When you study you should feel alert and strong.  Study without distractions - music, TV, cell phone, FOOD, etc.  And it's absolutely true that when you start to feel fatigued, getting a few minutes away to recharge is good; but you should go back to the same ideal study conditions - which should be your only study conditions - within 10 minutes.\n\nVery few people actually have the fortitude to follow through with these suggestions, but they're the ones getting As.

A can of redbull could do the trick (one every 3 hours or so). Also keep the temperature cool, your brain can focus better and heat makes you drowsy. You could also look into an ADD medication like Ritalin. It helps to maintain focus and attentiveness, however you might have trouble getting that instantly. If you don't like energy drinks such as redbull, there are caffeine pills available at the pharmacy. Make sure your area is well lit and you are organized. The best thing is to make yourself comfortable: play some jazz or classical music (although it might be tempting to listen to heavier stuff, this will just distract you).

Try taking a multi-vitamin and B-6.  It really helps me get a little more energy throughout the day.  Also, for your back, try swimming.  Good luck!

that's actually pretty easy, just keep your mind and your sense constantly stimulated and you'll be able to stay up for 50 hours straight and keep your energy levels up because when they start to go down you'll start to feel tired

Drink lots of water and get lots of sunshine.  Sounds dumb I know but the water increases the metabolism and flushes toxins out of the body and sunshine increase the serotonin levels.  Both will help boost your energy.

First of all, big sympathy! Here are a few ideas for you of some treatments which might help:\nChamomile - in tea form - you'll want one which contains the flowers not the leaves too, preferably Dr. Stewart's, as it contains the essential oils too. Add honey, otherwise it's an acquired taste. This will relax you. Dr. Stewart's also do a brilliant herbal tea called "Tranquility" which really does de-stress you powerfully. It doesn't taste very nice, and you will want to add some honey, but it certainly does the trick!!\n\nEvening Primrose Oil capsules - helps with mood swings, and water retention. Always a good idea for women to take this every day, as it's good with balancing oestrogen (so I understand).\n\nEssential oils (either a few drops mixed into a carrier oil for massaging into pulse points if you're on the go, or a few drops in the bath, or used in an oil burner - put some water in the dish, add a few drops and light the tea-light, making sure the dish doesn't burn dry):\nLavendar (relaxing), clary sage (reviving, mood-balancing, uplifting), rose or ylang ylang (uplifting). Geranium, chamomile, and neroli are all uplifting, and frankincense is relaxing, uplifting and good for meditation (always a good idea when suffering from PMT) and clear-headedness.\n\nDark chocolate releases endorphins into the bloodstream, helps boost the immune system, and is a super-food (more of the good stuff and less of the fatty stuff than you get in milk chocolate). So I'd recommend eating a few squares of that if you need an extra little lift.\n\nHope this helps, and remember you're not alone in this - isn't nature fun? At least it gives us some ways of making it better!

Hi, A good multi-vit is a must. B-complex vit. are important they've been branded as helping the body deal w/stress. Make sure it has Biotin in it (cheaper vit's dont have much if any because its more costly). Just dont buy some cheap a** centrum, flinstones ect. I do belive the three tab a day method is best, cuz if you take the all at once tabs they leave all at once, BUT thats better than none. Take em w/meals or a shake when possible, B-vits will wash away quick with just the H2O in your system here's some links below. Plus: Do you have a high temprture shower filter? Chlorine doesnt help. iron can help not to much.  Protein low? Get a Protein. I like Natues Plus stuff they have sound research and not over the top prices online. Ultra Hair® Plus Sustained Release Tablets combined with stright (no vits) shake. MetRx has great protein. Shop arond for best price. Get some relaxing exercise walk/jog-walk. be consisant w/the above and give it time.

Caffeine.\n\nHere are some things that can help. \n1. Limit daily intake of caffeine especially after 6 pm. \n2. Try to avoid watching TV and hour before bed, if your mind is too stimulated it can keep you awake. 3. Drink enough water during the day, preferably half your body weight in ounces. Water is a metabolism regulator, if yours is stable you will sleep better. \n4. Try to exercise 3-5 times a week, when you sleep your body rebuilds itself, so exercising will allow the body to make you tired by emitting chemicals that allow you to get more restful sleep. \n5. Try to relax about an hour before bed, limit stimulation to your brain, meditate, read relaxing material, listen to soothing music. \n6. One of the best natural treatments for sleep deprivation is lavender extract. Some people dont like it but you put a few drops on your pillow and you will be out like a light.\n\nRegardless of your other issues you have going, some which you may have little control over such as stress, these are small things you can control that can help you sleep better.

if u have this workload on you, you can try this: a herbal tee from south america called mate or yerba mate. it has just little caffeine but plenty of other nutrients that really complement the stimulation effect of caffeine. it will give u more stamina than coffee and, unlike coffee, it is absolutely harmless, it is healthy in fact, u can drink it all day, just do not drink it right before going to sleep \n\ni used to drink lots of it instead of coffee, when i realized that i simply cannot continue drinking so much coffee.\n\n  or try Korean ginseng - eleuterococus (i used it when i was writing my thesis and had little sleep and much work) or leuzea=rhaponticum= maral root (i take this one or eleuterococus to combat severe jet lag when the necessity arises - they wake me up, so i am active when i am supposed to be, so i get myself tired and then in the evening i can fall asleep more easily than if i spent the whole day trying to keep my eyes open! . so i think it is equally good for shiftworkers or the situation u described)\n\nBUT: dont take it before u go to sleep, it is imperative thet u sleep well since u dont have much time for that...

Get plenty of sleep. Drink lots of water. Eat nutritious foods low in caffeine and sugar. Fruits are good. Get a little exercise. Light exercise is good. Try to put yourself on a regular schedule where you sleep, eat, and exercise at the same time everyday. Don't worry about things that you don't have any control over. Just try to do the simple things that you can control. Go to church. Some people may not believe it but I don't care. The things that you can learn in church are good for your spirit. I wish you the best.

Try Ginko Biloba or Siberian ginseng, though ginseng is for energy i find that the conbination of these 2 is great for concentration and studying.  But if you dont want the extra energy then Ginko Biloba by itself works great.
