1. Use the energy spice: nutmeg affects blood sugar, helping keep levels consistent all day. Better control of your blood sugar levels leads to higher levels of physical and mental functioning.

2. Eat soup: it fills you up and reduces fat cravings, which can slow you down.

3. Stretch: when your favorite show takes a commercial break, get up and touch your toes it'll boost your circulation and get your blood flowing, leaving you feeling revitalized in just minutes.

4. Take tyrosine: this amino acid fights fatigue by pumping up your levels of energizing brain chemicals. Open a 500 mg capsule, place the powder under your tongue and let it dissolve.
