Energy boosting pick me ups

Running on empty, feeling run down or just after a boost to maintain momentum during the hard days?  We have compiled some top tips to help you boost your energy so that you don’t have to keep reaching for that extra cup of coffee!

Exercise 

A little workout goes a long way when it comes to boosting your energy.  According to the NHS,a single 15-minute walk can provide a much-needed energy boost, with the benefits proven to increase with more frequent physical activity.  

Start with a small amount of exercise and build it up gradually over weeks and months until you reach the recommended goal of 2.5 hours of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise, such as cycling or fast walking, every week.

Upgrade your Probiotic

Probiotics are known as the ‘friendly bacteria’ that balance out the food in your gut.  In addition to boosting your energy, probiotics can also support weight loss and boost your happy hormones so an all-round winner.  

Probiotics can be taken as a supplement such as Prov-Ven’s latestinnovation, ShapeLine priced at £29.95.  ShapeLine recently conducted a study that found by taking one probiotic capsule every day resulted in a massive 40% reduction in upper respiratory tract infections (coughs and colds), 30% reduction in headaches and improved overall wellness. 

Healthy, Balanced Diet

We hear this time and time again, but despite whatever fads come and go, this is a proven age-old solution to boosting energy. Balancing your diet and eating regularly are half the battle. For an extra boost of energy, starchy carbs are full with essential nutrients and leave you feeling full so don’t overlook foods such as potatoes, bread, cereal and rice.

Re-charge with CBD 

We’ve heard a lot about CBD and its benefits and with it hailed as the ‘wonder drug’ over the past couple of years, a trend that looks set to continue. Derived from the cannabis plant, CBD is commonly taken as an oil supplement with users reporting relief from pain, anxiety and sleep. 

Recharging our bodies is essential to boosting energy and the emergence of terpenes, an all-natural compound found in hemp planets, act in synergy with cannabinoids to provide improved benefits.  Try CannabiGold Terpenes + priced £24.99
