Eat food and do not depend on supplements.  Have a tuna sandwich or eat something similar.

Cinnamon is a great booster. A teaspoon in your morning coffee works wonders. \n\nGreen tea has other benefits than as a booster - keep drinking it. BUT, as with all herbal regimens, take time off from it every couple of weeks UNLESS ordered otherwise by a Dr.

its really tough.  My mom had CFS (also known as myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME), post-viral fatigue syndrome (PVFS)) for at least 10 years and still has issues\n\naloe juice can help, especially with the bowels, routines are a must, and make sure that exercise is performed as frequently as possible, even if she is exhausted.\n\nTreatment for chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) focuses on making you feel better so that you can resume a normal life. Simple measures you can take at home—such as improving your sleep habits and getting gentle exercise—are important parts of treatment. Talking with a counselor or psychologist has been proven to be helpful for people with CFS.6, 7\n\nAlthough there is no cure for CFS, many of its symptoms do respond to treatment.

A Bvitamin complex will help give energy.\n\nStay away from energy drinks.   Most contain tons of sugar and caffiene.  They will only cause you to crash later.\n\nEnergy really need to comes from the food you consume.  You need to eat a more nutrient dense diet that will really help your body work at an optimum level.  It's really best for the vitamins to come from a natural source rather than manmade like energy drinks.

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!!

I recommend all natural NutriFeron.  It's a clinically proven blend of immune-strengthening plant extracts.  Taken daily, it strengthens immune response by boosting the body's natural interferon.  This was developed by Dr. Kojima who discovered interferon in 1954 and spent 40 years searching for a natural interferon booster.  The result was NutriFeron.\n\nContains a proprietary blend of natural plant extracts from pumpkin seeds, safflower flowers, plantago seeds, and Japanese honeysuckle flower buds which have been clinically proven to support and stimulate the natural immune response process at the cellular level.\n\nHope this is helpful and feel free to contact me with questions.

vitamin B12 supplements. << will seriously work.\n\ntry taking centrum one-a-day chewables (the orange flavor is the best).\n\nalso start throwing a few more glasses of water into your diet. It is proven to make you feel healthier.\n\nTry getting 8 hours of sleep each night,  not 5 or 10.. sleeping too little or too much also makes you feel fatiqued.\n\nSkip the morning caffine, and avoid it all together.\n\nCaffine will make you feel drained after the short term effects wear off. (The same with a decent amount of sugar).\n\nIf you cut down on those, try for 8 hours of sleep each night, get your 5 glasses (try for atleast 5) of water in each day, and take a daily vitamin.. you should see drastic improvements.\n\nI hope this helps.

This is a very difficult question to answer.  My sister has had chronic fatigue for several years so I know a little bit about it, but I am not an expert or anything.  First of all there is no definitive test to prove that you have CFIDS.  It is usually decided by a process of elimination.  There are several chronic diseases that have similar symptoms.  Something else that you might look into is fibromialga (probably not spelled right).  My sister has had several of these persistent symptoms for 7 or 8 years: constant headache, extreme muscle fatigue, unrestful sleep, short-term memory and concentration problems, brain fog, and probably a few more that I didn't mention.  Many people think that just because they feel tired all the time that they have CFIDS, and this is simply not true.  It is a very commonly misunderstood disease, and since there is no definitive test to prove that you have it, many doctors believe that it doesn't even exist.  There is no cure for this disease, but there are treatments that may help to lessen some of the symptoms.  Many people who have this disease will have it for the rest of their lives, but there have been cases where it just went away.  You might try researching CFIDS on the web to find out more information.  Also check out this site  http://www.immunesupport.com/library/cfsdiagnosis.cfm/id/2817
