"Remedies To Build Up Energy"
Lately, I have been asked this question by a few people, "What can I take to boost my energy levels?"
Here are my suggestions in which I like to do in giving my body a good boost of energy besides reaching for a cup of coffee or 5 hour Energy shot:
- Vitamin B12
- CoQ10 (coenzyme) Ubiquinol - your body naturally produces this but as you get older it declines. It is useful for blood circulation. When I'm traveling long distance (more than 2 hours), such as, air flight, car or bus I like to take a supplement of CoQ10.
- Holy Basil (tulsi) - increases resistance to energy draining stress by stabilizing cortisol and blood sugar levels. I love to make holy basil tea with fresh leaves with flowers or dried.

- Stinging Nettle - is high in vitamin B1 and zinc that fuel your metabolism. It helps with allergies as well. I love drinking nettle tea.
- Matcha green tea - highly packed with rich antioxidants catechins, a plant compound, maintains healthy weight, energy, boosts brain function, protect the liver, promote heart health, and prevent cancer. This is my best tea I love to drink.
