How To Stay Awake Without Caffeine?

One little fact about caffeine that most people do not know, is that it is a psychoactive drug that works to stimulate the central nervous system. This is why it works so well as our best companion when studying for exams, rushing for work deadlines or simply staying alert enough to get through a work day. But if reaching out for that cup of coffee or that can of Redbull is sending alarm bells ringing, here are a few alternatives that work just as well too.   1. Exercise Exercise gets your heart pumping and the blood flowing, which in turn helps you to stay awake. Take the chance to walk your dog and have a change in environment or dance to your favourite mp3 tracks. You can burn calories at the same time too!   2. High energy food For a boost of energy, Maca Powder is one of nature’s best superfood to meet that need. This Peruvian ginseng has been known to provide the Inca warriors of old with incredible strength and endurance. A small amount of Maca Powder increases energy level, stamina and reduce fatigue too.   3. Take a shower or a nap One way to combat fatigue is to have a power nap. a 15-min nap could do well to fuel you through the day but make sure you have an alarm to wake you. In the case of extreme fatigue, nothing works best like a cold shower for an electrifying jolt throughout your body. It not only awakes your senses but also makes your skin taut! Try the above tips if you need to stay awake in future. Remember that for a healthy life, it is recommended that a person gets 7-9 hours of sleep daily but if you’re constantly tired, consider a lifestyle change or, see a doctor.
