“How sad for me is your appearance, spring, spring! it's time for love! " From which we can conclude that spring fatigue has always existed - In the spring, the body has to quickly readjust - to an accelerated metabolism and summer biological clock, - says Roza TsallagovaA, Head of the Department of Preventive Medicine and Fundamentals of Health, NSU of Physical Culture, Sports and Health. Lesgaft. - This is not easy to do - during the winter, fatigue accumulates associated with winter hypodynamia, polyhypovitaminosis (lack of most vitamins) and weakened immunity due to colds. And since the psyche is sensitive to all changes in the body, changes in tone always go hand in hand with mood swings..

Ways out of spring fatigue have long been known and are quite simple..

Good sleep is the best way to replenish energy and restore strength - both after illnesses and during spring fatigue..

Rational nutrition - in the spring you should not “overfeed” the body with fatty and plentiful food. An accelerated metabolism means that the body can get enough of lighter fortified meals - vegetables, fruits, cereals. It is no coincidence that Great Lent falls in the spring, which provides for a long-term rejection of high-calorie foods..

Physical activity - dosed physical activity will not only replenish the supply of vigor, but also improve mood, as it contributes to the production of endorphins that normalize the emotional state.

sun, air. - during your lunch break, try to get out at least briefly and walk along the sunny side of the street. Under the influence of sunlight, the body produces an activity hormone - serotonin..

... and water - better in the form of contrast procedures (baths, saunas) or a lightweight version - a contrast shower. This simple health remedy helps not only to quickly wake up and cheer up, but also serves as a charge for blood vessels, improves skin tone, and has a positive effect on the state of the nervous system..

What to do if mild and affordable means of increasing vigor do not help?

The only way out is to resort to tonic drinks..

They are natural - they act gently, but you have to wait a long time for the effect, and artificial - they bring you to life instantly. Specialists have an ambiguous attitude towards the latter, to put it mildly..

“Opponents of these products claim that they can lead to serious health consequences and, like drugs, they can become addictive,” says Igor Sokolsky, Ph.D.. - Energy drinks in large doses can cause insomnia, anxiety and blood pressure fluctuations. And a mixture of energy tonics with alcohol threatens even with a fatal outcome..

These shortcomings are deprived of natural energy - plants, which are also called biostimulants.. These herbs strengthen, tone and increase the body's resistance, as well as stimulate the nervous system.. Their only disadvantage is the slowly developing effect.. To achieve a sustainable result, they need to be drunk in courses.. Each herb has its own "
