Whether you’ve suffered a restless night’s sleep or are constantly on the go, tiredness can sometimes hit you like a brick wall. But, instead of suffering from in-a-constant-daze syndrome there are measures you can take that may naturally bolster up the energy levels. Tweaking your diet and adding in vitamin-rich foods and supplements can help keep the tired symptoms at bay.

Top-Rated Vitamins for Tiredness

Vitamin B

The vitamin B complex is made up of eight hardworking vitamins that support the body in healthy functioning of the cells and brain, whilst also helping to convert the food we eat, into energy. Deficiency in any of the eight B vitamins can bring about symptoms of tiredness and fatigue. But do not panic! There are plenty of foods rich in one or multiple B vitamins, including:

– Eggs

– Salmon

– Leafy greens

– Milk

– Grains

Vitamin B is recommended as one of the top vitamins to help with tiredness, so you can also opt for a supplement if you’re struggling to stay topped up through your diet. Vitamins should be used alongside a balanced diet.

Vitamin C

Vitamin C is a powerhouse antioxidant that does a great deal of good in the body. Notonlyis it vital in supporting the immune system and overall cell health, but it’s also a key player in the body’s production of energy. Typically, vitamin C is known for being found in citrus fruits such as oranges and lemons, but you can also get your daily dose from:

– Broccoli

– Strawberries

– Blackcurrants

– Potatoes

– Peppers

Don’t forget, you can also take vitamin C supplements which may help to keep you feeling energised throughout the day. VÖOST Effervescent Vitamin C 20 Pack £5.49 SHOP NOW Superdrug Vitamin C High Strength 1000mg Chewable Tablets 60 £6.99 SHOP NOW

Vitamin D

Supporting the immune system, keeping bones strong and assisting with energy and mood, vitamin D is one essential vitamin that should not be overlooked. Our bodies can create this vitamin (cool, right?) by absorbing the sunlight. But with British weather as it is, it can leave many of us deficient and feeling like a midday nap is never too far away. So for the months where the sun is hiding, it is extra important to consume these foods rich in vitamin D:

– Oily fish

– Egg yolks

– Mushrooms

– Red meat

– Liver

– Cereals and milks fortified with vitamin D

Best Minerals for Tiredness

We’ve covered vitamins for tiredness, but we can’t forget about the essential minerals doing a similar job in helping to keep sleepiness at bay!

Iron

As you may remember from science lessons, iron is needed by the body to produce red blood cells, which carry oxygen around the body. So, when a person is low on iron reserves, it can bring about feelings of exhaustion and fatigue. As the body is unable to make iron, its essential that we eat an iron-rich diet. You can find it in foods such as:

– Liver

– Red meat

– Dark leafy greens such as spinach

– Dried fruit

– Beans

– Fortified cereals

And, like all of the vitamins mentioned, there are also iron supplements available at Superdrug, if you need to boost your intake.

Magnesium

Magnesium, it’s one of the unsung heroes of the mineral world. Responsible for muscle and nerve function as well as helping the body to convert food into energy, getting the right intake of magnesium is vital for healthy functioning of the body. Without it, we can start to feel exhausted pretty quickly.

To stay topped up, here at some foods high in magnesium:

– Dark leafy greens such as spinach

– Nuts

– Whole grains

– Fish

– Meat

– Dairy Products

If you are struggling to reach the recommended magnesium intake, you can support your diet with magnesium supplements. Vitabiotics Ultra Magnesium X 30 tablets £5.99 SHOP NOW Superdrug A-Z Multivitamins with Minerals Tablets X 30 £2.49 SHOP NOW
