There are some times when one would just feel randomly tired during the day while he is at work or at school which is probably an indicator that he is overworked. Now when this happens, one would feel really drained, sleepy, and of course too tired to continue working. Now when this happens, one can actually take herbs for energy instead of drinking coffee so that he does not need to suffer the effects of coffee.

Of course if one has heard about herbs, then he has probably heard about the most well known one which is ginseng. Now this is arguably the most popular one which has many properties in it that can actually give people that sudden adrenaline boost. It is because of this that commercial energy drinks these days make use of the manufactured version of ginseng.

Now second on the list would be its equally popular but not mass produced sibling which is known as gingko. Now gingko is a kind of herb that is known to produce a lot of ATP in the body. Now for those who do not know what ATP is, it is a chemical that would give the brain the order to process more glucose in the body which of course in turn will give a person more strength and adrenaline.

Now if one has a rather physical job that would entail a lot of body movement, then the best herb for him to take would be cordyceps. Now cordyceps is an herb that is known to have properties that are used to increase endurance as well as stamina. In fact, a lot of athletes would take this herb because it would give them more stamina so that they can last longer when they are out in the field.

Another very good herb is known as ashwagandha which is known to not only give more energy but to also ease fatigue or exhaustion. Now fatigue is actually one of the causes of loss of strength so if one can take out the source, then he can take away the effect. It may also help a person develop a strong resistance to stress and also to fatigue.

Nettles can be used to make a very nice tea that can actually be more effective than coffee but without any side effects. Nettles are actually full of different vitamins as well as nutrients that would actually boost strength. All one has to do is put some dried nettles in a pitcher of boiled water and just let it brew overnight.

Now the last and the rarest one is known as the Reishi mushroom. This is an herb that has been used by the Chinese for many years already and can boost energy really fast. It can also boost the immune system of a person too.

So for those who are having a hard time at keeping awake during work, here are some herbs that would help. Now the best thing about these herbs is that there would be no side effects. This is a great alternative to drinking coffee.
