Alternatives To Caffeine For A Boost

Published by admin | Filed under self improvement, parenting, opinion, health

It’s a commonly known fact, that when you’re a bit sleepy, you grab a cup of coffee and you’ll be able to stay awake that bit longer, but what if you don’t drink coffee? Caffeine and caffeine substitutes can be found in a range of other foods, liquids, plants, and sometimes pills, however, how effective are they really? Coca-cola is known for its high caffeine content, however drinking a lot of coke will simply make you hyper from the massive amount of sugar you’ll end up consuming. Ginseng is supposed to give you a boost, and though Ginseng tables and tea are easily available from the pharmacy, its power is unfortunately, limited. Guarana has to date, been promoted as an effective caffeine substitute, and although it does give you more energy, if you are really tired, it is also relatively ineffective. There are additionally, a range of products available on and offline filled with vitamin and mineral combinations, with and without fruits, vegetables, herbs, and more. Even Barocca - a vitamin B complex fizzy drink can’t compete with long term fatigue due to ongoing lack of sleep. How do I know? I’ve tried them all. Even the latest Ortis multi pack filled with a combo of guarana, ginseng and other lesser known herbs and whatnots. With 2 babies under 2, no more than 2-3 hours’ sleep a night for the last 9 months…the only solution to regaining energy on this scale as I’ve discovered, is sleep!
