Supplements for Fatigue

The prophet (peace be upon him) gave us a prescription for obtaining strength, (scholars said it's for any kind of strength) before you sleep, you say:
Sub-ha-na-Allah 33 times, Al-ham-duli-llah 33 times, and Allahu-ak-bar 34 times.

It helps if you also maintain a healthy lifestyle with diet, exercise and sleeping habits. Here is a related article from Dr. Weil about: Supplements for Fatigue

If you feel worn down or are lacking energy due to a hectic schedule and day-to-day stressors, learn how to fight fatigue naturally. Taking a few minutes for yourself and doing simple breathing exercises can be helpful, as can daily moderate exercise and getting adequate rest. Certain nutrients, botanicals and other compounds can also help to ward off or lessen the effects of general fatigue. Experiment with the following:

-Magnesium and calcium. Oral magnesium supplementation has been shown to improve symptoms of fatigue in persons with low magnesium levels.
-Eleuthero or Siberian ginseng (Eleutherococcus senticosus). Studies show that eleuthero can help enhance mental activity as well as physical endurance.
-Coenzyme Q10. This vital nutrient is involved in cellular energy production throughout the body.
-Ashwaganda, an Ayurvedic herb prized for its ability to help the body deal with stress.
-Cordyceps, a traditional Chinese medicinal mushroom that may help fight fatigue and boost energy levels.

Other ways to fight fatigue include a healthy diet, adequate exercise and quality sleep
