There is no particular cure for fatigue syndrome, and most of the athletes suffer from this problem. However, these types of exhaustion issues can be addressed with traditional Chinese medicine, known as Cordyceps.Natural enhancer of stamina and endurance
It supports your immune system so that level of resistance is increased
Cordyceps has particular enzymes and nutrients that mainly battle with the immune system; any physical stress, as well as the muscle degradation, can be managed through it. Cordyceps not only help in battling with the fatigue, but it also prevents tiredness and muscle degradation. In fact, it promotes muscle growth, which is good for athletes and body builders. We can easily say that this natural mushroom can provide good stamina and extra strength.
One reason that the supplement yields such an outcome is because it will help oxygenate the blood to a high degree. ATP synthesis (chemical used by cells as an energy carrier) is also enhanced when a person takes Cordyceps at regular intervals.
Cordyceps as a tonic for all illnesses. This is because they continually witness how it improves people’s energy, sleep habits, digestion, stamina, libido and endurance
Good for liver and kidney health

L-Carnitine
This nutrient helps transport fats deep into cells so they can be burned for energy, and it is synergistic with coQ10 (Ubiquinol), Creatine, and Alpha-Lipoic Acid:
- coQ10: Combats many of the symptoms of Adrenal Fatigue since it helps to keep the metabolism operating and it also ensures higher energy levels. CoQ10 is a vital ingredient in the production of energy in every cell. It works in the mitochondria as a powerful antioxidant and enzyme
- Combining L-Carnitine & CoQ10 Not Only Gives You Energy-It Protects Your Heart
- Starting around the age of 30, our bodies have a harder time changing conventional CoQ10 into the more advanced Ubiquinol form, impacting our bodies' supply of cellular energy
- ***Alpha-Lipoic Acid: Alpha-lipoic plays key roles in cells’ energy-generating mitochondria, so it makes sense to include it to enhance energy production. Dose: 200–300 mg alpha-lipoic acid or half that amount of the R-lipoic acid for
- Creatine: Increases muscle size, but it's also effective at reducing fatigue and promoting effective energy usage--Is a Form Of: Performance Enhancer, Nootropic, Muscle Builder, and Pseudovitamin
One study found that L-carnitine reduced CFS symptoms, and another reported that it improved physical and mental fatigue in centenarians, who tend to have age-related energy issues.
For physical fatigue, take 2-3 grams of carnitine daily, with a high-protein meal. (You can divide the dose among breakfast, lunch, and dinner.) For mental fatigue or cognitive problems, try 1-2 grams of acetyl-L-carnitine daily.
*********************************************************************************
***How Alpha Lipoic Acid Might Help With Energy
ALA is one of the primary coenzymes required to convert dietary carbohydrates into energy in the body.
Antioxidant activity
ALA is capable of warding off harmful free radicals both inside and outside of cells, which is critical for maintaining effective energy production.
ALA’s antioxidant activity has two additional components:
- Increasing glutathione (GSH) levels. By increasing GSH (a key antioxidant), ALA not only protects cells, but has also been reported to challenge the onset of chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) as well as exercised-induced fatigue.
- Regenerate antioxidants. ALA is capable of regenerating energy-boosting antioxidants, such as vitamin E and vitamin C.
Alpha Lipoic Acid Benefits & Uses for Energy
ALA is frequently taken for boosting energy levels and other related uses such weight loss and improved brain function. There is some early research evidence that ALA can help battle fatigue and improve related cognitive parameters, but high-quality clinical trials are needed to confirm its effectiveness as an energy booster.
ALA is vital to good health. One study discovered that a deficiency in the enzyme that synthesizes ALA, known as lipoic acid synthase, resulted in epilepsy and defective energy metabolism.
*********************************************************************************
Turn ubiquinone into Ubiquinol CoQ10
This conversion into Ubiquinol becomes more difficult to complete as we get older
Unlike conventional CoQ10, Ubiquinol is a very powerful antioxidant by virtue of its two extra electrons. Those electrons are important because they hold the key to neutralizing substances called free radicals.
Ubiquinol is the only form of CoQ10 capable of protecting the mitochondria and their lipid membranes from free radical attack
If you’re age 30 (or better!) and taking CoQ10 to support your health, be sure to take it in the advanced Ubiquinol form so your body enjoys the maximum benefit possible

Ashwagandha
Ashwagandha can have numerous healing benefits for adrenal fatigue sufferers.
It is known to boost the immune system, support improved thyroid functioning, enhance brain power and mood, and prevent the loss of cortisol.
It works to support a healthy immune system, dampen pain, and improve energy levels
Ashwagandha can be combined with many supplements and herbs:
- For vitality, physical endurance, and mental concentration, it can be combined with rhodiola, ginseng, and terminalia arjuna.
- Maca and ashwagandha are sometimes used together for sexual stimulation and fertility issues.
- Curcumin and silymarin (milk thistle extract) can be added to ashwagandha for increased antioxidant effect.
- Ashwagandha and Gingko Biloba combination is taken for nervous system and brain health.
There are 2 different methods that manufacturers use to extract Ashwagandha for later use in supplements:
The “root and leaves” method
The “ROOT ONLY” method
The “ROOT ONLY” extraction method is SUPERIOR and in line with thousands of years of Ayurvedic medicine
KSM–66 is an extract of Ashwagandha that uses the “root only” method and is considered the most superior organic form of Ashwagandha available for optimal adaptogenic benefits
When evaluating Ashwagandha supplements, make sure it has at least 10 mg of black pepper per serving for Maximum Absorption.
Withanolides are the naturally-occurring steroids found in substances such as Ashwagandha.
The optimal concentration using this method is > 5%

Reishi
Mushrooms heal and transform your cells, relax your central nervous system, improve hormonal imbalances, enhance cognitive abilities and relieve allergies and chronic fatigue. Mushrooms contain anti-cancerous, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, and contain liver protective properties.
Adaptogen
Reishi has a been described as a combination of spiritual vigor and elixir of immortality where it’s tied to success, well-being, divine power, and longevity and life-extending abilities
Reishi extracts were found to stimulate the production of nerve growth factor, which in turn supports the rapid development of healthy neurons and enhances their mitochondrial function
Amino Acids
Branched chain amino acids (BCAAs) are a group of amino acids that includes valine, leucine and isoleucine. BCAAs are great at preventing fatigue during intense, exhaustive exercise
Tulsi-Holy Basil Tea
Tulsi or holy or sacred basil is a well respected Ayurvedic herb which has been used for over 5,000 years to help promote longevity, and improve energy levels and treat fatigue. This effective 'adaptogenic' herb, which can be consumed as a tea, is beneficial for treating anxiety and adrenal fatigue.
Coffee & Coconut Oil
One important reason caffeine is not recommended as an energy booster for people with CFS is that its effects are very short-lived. Caffeine, just like sugar, is a loan shark for energy. It gives an initial burst of energy, but takes away more than it gives, leaving people craving even more sugar and caffeine.
Coconut Oil
Coconut oil has proven to be an effective remedy for chronic fatigue which is believed to be caused by viruses. It kills the virus that is believed to cause fatigue.
Energizes the body and speeds up the metabolism.
The nutrients of coconut oil are easily absorbed into the body, healing it and keeping it healthy.
High concentration of medium-chain fatty acids (MCFAs), excellent energy source that is almost never stored as fat.
Black & Green Tea
Cup for cup, tea has about half the caffeine of brewed coffee. But if you drink two cups of tea, you don't get the same buzz as one cup of coffee. The reason is that tea also contains a compound (L-theanine) that has tranquilizing action. The Chinese say that tea produces "relaxed alertness."
The antioxidant green tea compound EGCG can help offset the physical and mental fatigue associated with modern stressful lives
Multivitamin
Treatment with a vitamin and mineral supplement could be a safe and easy way to improve symptoms and quality of life for people with fatigue.
B-complex vitamins
The production of energy in cells depends on most of the B vitamins. Of these, B2 and B3 play central roles in converting food to energy, and B1 and pantothenic acid are also of fundamental importance. These vitamins work in what’s called the Krebs cycle, which can be visualized as an energy-making waterwheel.
Dose: Try a B-complex or multivitamin with 50 mg each of B1, B2 and B3
Vitamin C
You need this nutrient (along with B vitamins) to make your own carnitine. An early symptom of low vitamin C levels is fatigue, which may be related to decreased carnitine production
Because vitamin C is so critical to the immune system and the strength and maintenance of the body’s connective tissues, any reduction below the normal levels of this vitamin can result in body weakness, muscle pain, and the type of bodily stress that can increase anxiety and fatigue.
In addition, nerve problems and respiratory difficulties often accompany those body aches, leaving you with less oxygen transport capacity, and less energy production at the cellular level
Dose: 1,000–5,000 mg (divided doses) daily
Guduchi
As a rejuvenative, guduchi strengthens the tissues, bolsters immunity, and promotes vitality while calming the mind and supporting proper function of the nervous system.
Amrita-Divine Nectar
The Ayurvedic medicine deems Guduchi as ‘Amrit’ because it is believed to promote vitality and longevity.
Ayurveda believes it to possess healing properties and fighting the excess of the 3 doshas – Vata, pitta, and kapha. Owing to its healing properties, it is believed to clear the body of the accumulated toxins, thus purifying the liver, kidneys, joints, and blood.
Improves the liver and kidney health: It boosts the liver health by eliminating toxins that have build up.
Acts as an adaptogen: The herb has been found to have adaptogenic properties and increases the body’s resistance to stress, illnesses, depression, and anxiety.
Detoxifies the body: Given its ability to rid the body of toxins, Guduchi is an excellent way to boost overall health and wellness due to the detoxification effect.
Makes for an excellent health tonic if combined with other herbs.
Tinospora cordifolia is an herb used in Ayurveda to enhance vitality
