  A recent survey found nearly 45 percent of American workers claim to be too tired to function at work. Instead of letting low energy levels get in the way of great job performance, now is the time to take action.

  Here are some of the safe methods you can use to boost low energy levels in a hurry.

  Finding a Quality Acetyl L-Carnitine is Essential

  The human body produces a number of different amino acids. These acids are designed to help with everything from digestion to energy levels. Using an Acetyl L-Carnitine supplement helps you provide your body with more of an amino acid it already produces naturally.

  Not only can this supplement help with heart and brain health, it also provides users with a boost of energy. The key to having success with a supplement like this is consulting with medical professionals. These professionals can help you figure out whether or not this supplement is the best fit for your problem.

  Getting More Sleep Can Be Helpful

  Most people underestimate just how important a good night's sleep is. Failing to get quality sleep on a consistent basis will lead to lots of health problems. Instead of ignoring sleep-related problems, you need to work on finding a solution.

  Trying things like cutting off all electronics an hour before bedtime can be helpful. Modern humans have far too much stimulation in the form of electronic devices and televisions. By removing these distractions from your bedroom, you can focus solely on getting to sleep. While this will take some getting used to, it is essential when trying to develop healthy sleeping habits.

  Try Exercising More

  Does your job require you to sit at a desk for hours on end? Working in this sedentary environment can create lots of problems over time. Instead of sitting at your desk and fighting to stay awake, try getting up and moving around.

  By taking the time to walk a few miles on a daily basis, you can give your body the boost of energy it needs to make it through the workday. Not only will regular exercise help your energy levels, it will also help you lose weight.

  You Are What You Eat

  Consuming a steady diet of fast food and sugar-filled snacks will usually lead to the development of serious health problems. Filling your body with these bad foods will usually lead to weight gain and problems with your energy. Instead of letting your health decline as a result of these bad food choices, eat more whole, natural foods and less processed foods.

  Eating healthier foods is essential when trying to increase energy levels and decrease your weight. Cooking more meals at home can also help you save money.

  Small Changes Add Up Over Time

  Some people think that they have to make drastic changes to boost energy levels and get healthy. In reality, making small incremental changes can add up and help you accomplish your goals quickly.

  Lifestyle Choices, Nutrition & Quality Supplements

  Think back to the time of your great-grandparents. What types of food did people eat back then? For the most part they ate what they could grow on their land or what they got locally from a Farmer's market or some other community-based food supply. So what happened to our food? Why are so many of us sick, overweight and tired?
