    If you're feeling tired and wornout rest assured that you have plenty of company. Fatigue ranks among America’s most common health complaints. Life today moves at a faster pace than ever before in history, and many of us feel compelled to keep up. On good days we may manage to accomplish everything on the to-do list. But the cost is steep: When we continuously tap the energy well, it inevitably runs dry.

    In truth, many of us pay more attention to our bank statements than our energy reserves. For optimal vitality, however, we need to consistently replenish the energy supply in the same way we make regular deposits into a checking account. Many of us already know the formula: Eat a healthful diet, avoid stimulants such as caffeine and nicotine, get plenty of rest and relaxation, and engage in moderate exercise. Unfortunately, as our responsibilities mount, our adherence to these guidelines can falter.

    But whether or not we live by exemplary habits, there’s another element to the energy equation that will quickly build vitality: the herbal energy tonic. Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine have employed tonic herbs for centuries to fortify health and vitality and promote longevity. Now more than ever, these herbs play a significant role in helping us adapt to life’s daily stress.

Historically, herbal tonics for enhancing energy and vitality had a special place in the repertoire of the world's healers as a vehicle for well-being. By improving the body's functioning at a cellular level, tonic herbs strengthen resistance to both external invaders and internal breakdowns.
