How to Eat and Exercise for Lasting Energy
Research suggests that about one in four adults experiences fatigue, tiredness, and exhaustion unrelated to severe clinical conditions. If you intend to wake up feeling supercharged and efficiently sail through the day with ease and more enthusiasm, the solution might be simple.
While advertisements that promote energy or power food and beverages and the health food shops and their products promise to increase vigor, simple lifestyle changes are usually more effective. Learn how healthy eating and regular exercise can give you lasting energy.
Healthy And Balanced Eating for Lasting Energy:
- Select healthy carbs – Complex carbohydrates found in whole grains provide a steady source of energy. On the other hand, simple carbohydrates in cookies and other processed foods fluctuate your blood sugar, leaving you much more tired and exhausted. Have you ever noticed, you or your children had a sudden rise in energy just a few hours after eating macaronis, and depleting their energy?
- Control portions – Healthy fats and proteins provide some energy too. Please include them in your balanced diet in reasonable quantity. Too much healthy fat and protein can slow digestion, making you feel sloppy and fatigue.
- Lose excess weight gradually – If you want to lose weight, rather than depriving yourself of energy with crash diets, aim to lose about one pound each week. Being overweight contributes to fatigue because the body has to carry around excess weight that may also interfere with sleep. When your sleep is regularly disturbed, you also have a tendency to overeat, leading to a never-ending cycle of gaining and losing excess weight.
- Enjoy breakfast – Studies show that a cheerful breakfast helps you to resist junk food later in the day. Add Greek yogurt, eggs, and fruit to your diet. If you like, eat salad and soup for some morning than your conventional breakfast foods.
- Eat snacks in moderation – If you often get hungry in between meals or feel sluggish after a big lunch; spreading your calories into smaller meals and snacking in moderation may help keep you on an even scale.
- Drink plenty of water – Dehydration can significantly lead to fatigue, particularly for adults and the elderly, who often become less sensitive to thirst. Keep a water bottle handy and sip some water as often as you can remember.
- Consume more iron – Younger women are receptive to anemia related to iron deficiencies. Foods rich in this mineral include honey, liver, beef, lentils, and spinach. Remember to squeeze lemon on any of the above, as vitamin C helps with iron absorption.
- Consider taking supplements – Most healthy adults can get the nutrients they need from food alone. Consuming quality supplements like multivitamins, B complex, and omega-3 and 6 fatty acids that you might be deficient in, but mainly 300-600mg Coenzyme Q10 per day, will increase your energy.

Intuitive Exercise And Lifestyle Changes For Lasting Energy:

- Exercise intuitively – Listen to your body, when it comes to exercise, You can still have a rough outline of the type of incredibly helpful workouts that especially increase your energy, such as Low and moderate-intensity aerobics, local fitness classes, Yoga, Pilates, walking or running or perhaps ride your bike, but you still want to be in tune with your body, and the forms of movement you feel like doing. After all the activities you choose should be fun and enjoyable for you.
- Quit Smoking – If you’ve attempted before, try again as it may usually take multiple efforts to succeed. Prolong use of Tobacco reduces your blood vessels’ diameter, reducing the supply of oxygen and nutrients.
- Limit Alcohol – Alcohol like Taquila may seem and make you feel like the life of the party, but alcohol in any form is a depressant.
Say goodbye to fatigue. A balanced diet and an active lifestyle can give you the energy you need to enjoy the activities you love and accomplish more with less effort.
Office Syndrome – What EXPERTS are NOT TELLING YOU!
Are you tired of your shoulder and neck pain? Or the symptoms of office syndrome?
If you are reading this, I assume you have tried every possible treatment like massage, physio, painkillers and acupuncture and all forms of physical exercises that claim to give you the relief from your pains and haven’t got any results or still hoping that continuing to a so-called general method will help you fix it and get rid of that pain?
What is Office Syndrome?
Do you have an office job? Do you
spend at least 8 hours each day sitting on a chair in front of a computer? Then
chances are you suffer from the office syndrome.
People suffering of the office
syndrome have back, neck or shoulder pain, headaches, aching arms, numbness of
the hands or feet, eye strain, dry eyes or glare and other complications.
How did you get Office Syndrome?
With the evolution of technology, most jobs nowadays involve 8 hours of sitting on a chair, in front of a computer. Sure, this is much easier and comfortable than doing physical labor, but it also causes a series of problems.
Sitting on a chair and staring at a
monitor for so many hours every day can cause chronic pain, intervertebral disc
disease and abnormalities in the spine.
This problem should be taken very
seriously, If you do not plan to change career, you will probably do the same
office job for the next 30 years or so. And even if you are feeling ok right
now, you will definitely feel worse over the next years.
There are plenty of treatments out there that claim to be helpful, and I am sure you have tried some or all of them, by now you already know that, they will only give you temporary relief.
Why experts haven’t told you the most effective solution to your office syndrome?
There are many methods out there that only provide temporary pain relief or that do not work at all, and it seems that experts are hiding the most effective solution for the office syndrome. Some of the ineffective solutions include acupuncture, electrical treatment and general Yoga classes.
What if I told you that you are not given the complete treatments. To every professional you go, they are experts of one method, and you might be an absolutely new case, but they still impose same treatments on every patient that has worked for others without a thorough examination, assessments, posture analysis or habits checked and why in the first place you got that pain? They might notice that you have some posture issues but they still are only limited to reducing your pain, which eventually will come back or move to other weak parts of the body.
Why acupuncture is only a temporary solution to your office syndrome?
Pricking a needle on so-called “acupoints”, may relieve pain by releasing endorphins, the body’s natural pain-killing chemicals, and by affecting the part of the brain that governs serotonin, a brain chemical involved with mood. If the acupuncture works on your body, you will start noticing that you are less stressed, you are sleeping better, having more energy, and your digestion is better. But all that can also be the result of simply doing proper exercises in their correct form.
Some people claim that acupuncture might be a solution, but that’s not really the best option. Acupuncture should be done by a specialist with lots of experience, otherwise just putting needles in random places of the body is useless.
Some people felt better with acupuncture, others haven’t felt anything, while others felt even worse. And even if the pain goes away for a short period of time during the session, it quickly returns. Not to mention that acupuncture requires a lot of time to get results, and not all people have the time, the money and the willpower to get stung with needles 2 to 3 times each week, over the course of a few months.
How Electric treatments in physiotherapy can not give you long term relief from your chronic pain?
The various electric treatments offered by Physiotherapists are not effective in getting rid of the chronic pains. The TENS therapy (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation) provides short-term pain relief and involves placing electrodes on the skin and delivering low-voltage electrical current. This alters the normal perception of pain, and it can work for some types of pain. Similarly, the ultrasound and short wave diathermy provide deep healing which promotes healing of the soft tissues such as muscles, tendons, and ligaments in the body.
But when it comes to chronic low back pain, arthritis, or symptoms related to office syn-drome, it is not effective and is not recommended by the American Academy of Neurology.
Why general Yoga classes are not going to fix your posture?
You believe it or not but the fact is 90% of Office syndrome is related to habitual postural misalignment. There are various solutions out there, and yoga seems to be one of them. Sure, it has multiple benefits for the mind, body, and soul, but regular yoga classes may not be the best choice. People with no experience and with back stiffness, pain and lack of mobility, go to these classes and try to replicate the complicated poses they see others do. Not only they risk injury, but they will definitely not improve their back condition and office syndrome.
Most classes will not give you options that are related to your posture, in reality, none of the Yoga teacher trainings educate the teachers to analyze the posture. If you are flexible one way and stiff the other way, you always have a tendency to do the yoga positions that are easier, for example, if your beck bend is very good you will usually like to do the backbends, And that’s what makes your body more imbalanced. Please don’t get me wrong, Yoga is my life and profession, its also my most preferable form of training to keeping my body in good condition and for that reason, general yoga classes are absolutely beneficial but they won’t help you improve your posture in particular.
Postural imbalances are best corrected in a gradual, systematic manner. Since we are not only biological but also psychological and spiritual in nature, a change in our biology will affect our minds and enhance our spiritual awareness as well. In a nutshell – Maintaining a good posture is an inside job.
That’s why small group classes or even private one on one sessions are so much better because its customized solution for your problem and the instructor will focus on your specific needs and will have you perform movements that are beneficial for YOU. You get all that at Abbysan that is affordable.
