Life style change: Fatigue may result from overwork, poor sleep, worry, boredom, or lack of exercise. It is a symptom that may be caused by illness, medicine..Avoid latter. The caffeine in energy drinks provides an initial boost of energy, but regular caffeine consumption actually creates negative neurotransmitter adaptations in the brain, eventually making you fatigued .instead of energized.

Lifestyle/nutrition: Adhering to a healthy lifestyle & good nutrition should help your energy levels. Get adequate sleep at night & get about 30 minutes of aerobic exercise daily. Avoid too much sugar & caffeine. Do not smoke or take illicit drugs. Meditate daily for relaxation. Take a high quality multiple vitamin/mineral supplement daily. Eat a lot of fruit, veggies, fatty fish such as salmon & chicken.

Fatigue: If fatigue is severe and not entirely explained by lack of sleep, it's worthwhile to have a checkup by your physician to rule out entities like anemia,iron deficiency, underactive thyroid, chronic infection, chronic inflammatory disease, depression,etc
