Tryptophan, or simply too many calories?

While the amino acid found in turkey (and many other sources) has been blamed for the drowsy feeling that comes after a holiday meal, the truth is, too many calories are the more likely culprit.

Or, if it’s the baked goods and not the main courses that make up the heavy part of your dining habits, you can still feel ready for a slumber afterward.

So what to do?

Trying to resist is tough. Few people are more persistent (and guilt-inducing) than your own family. Most of the time, our families can be our worst enemies when it comes to maintaining healthy habits. How do you get through it? Here are a few tips:

Be firm.
You’re not required to go into graphic detail on why you’re having small portions or avoiding some foods entirely. If you have to, just repeat your explanation, but don’t give in to pressure or guilt. After all, you have to keep yourself healthy, too. Remind them that the food tastes great, and their time and effort is sincerely appreciated, and you’d like to spend some time visiting and not just eating.

Be patient.
It’s not easy, but remember that they’re your family and these days, you probably don’t see them as often as you used to.

Be prepared.
Again, the holidays are a temporary situation. To get over the strange additions to your diet, and hectic schedule, consider the energy support you can have with Fatigued to Fantastic!® Energy Revitalization System™.†

Two parts, one kit = feeling completely great!
The Fatigued to Fantastic!® Daily Energy Enfusion™ powder drink mix – part one of the kit - combines vitamins, minerals, and amino acids for a month of energizing.† The two delicious flavors, Berry Splash or Citrus Delight more than make up for any healthful sacrifices you may have had to make now and then.

The second part of this kit includes the powerful Fatigued to Fantastic!® Daily Energy B Complex† supplement. B vitamins should be replenished every day. These nutrients are water soluble, so they move quickly through the body and are used up rapidly when you’re under stress. (As you may just happen to be during this particular season.)

Luckily, Fatigued to Fantastic! Daily Energy B Complex features high levels of B12 and other B vitamins that support vitality, enhance endurance, and maintain mental alertness.† 

A kit to build an energizing day
Your usual healthy diet is the best foundation when it comes to feeling great. But the pressures of the season, (and tempting foods everywhere) can be a real challenge.

Happily, the Fatigued to Fantastic! Energy Revitalization System† provides vitamins, minerals, and amino acids for anytime when a balanced meal and regular exercise feel like more like a holiday wish than a reality.
