I've been taking Patanjali's ashwagandha tablets after lunch hoping they'd give me more energy during the day, but instead, I just get really sleepy. Do you know of any other ashwagandha brands that could actually help with boosting energy?

Consider alternative ashwagandha brands like Himalaya, Dabur, or NOW Foods, which may have different formulations or concentrations that might provide energizing effects without excessive sleepines

View allI'm a 30-year-old guy and I've been dealing with this weird recurring fever thing for the past couple of years. Basically, every month or two I start feeling feverishsometimes there's a bit of a cold and a headache along with it. The fever isn't super high but it goes away with anti-pyretics after 4 to 6 days. At first, I thought it might be allergies but that doesnt seem to be the case. I've been to quite a few doctors and done tons of tests, but they just treat the fever and tell me there's nothing wrong. I'm kinda stuck and don't know what to do next. Could it be something thats just not showing up in the usual tests?

I'm curious about any long-term effects of taking two Limcee tablets a day. I've been on them for about two months and noticed my immunity has improved a lot, so I'm thinking about continuing with them. Are there any concerns I should be aware of?
Potential Causes* 1. *Anxiety and stress*: As you mentioned, anxiety can contribute to an elevated heart rate and palpitations. Career and family concerns are common stressors. 2. *Caffeine intake*: Consuming 3-4 cups of tea per day may be contributing to your elevated heart rate. Caffeine can increase heart rate and blood pressure. 3. *Dehydration*: Inadequate hydration can cause an increase in heart rate. Ensure you're drinking enough water throughout the day. 4. *Electrolyte imbalance*: An imbalance of essential minerals like potassium, magnesium, or calcium can affect heart rate. 5. *Hypothyroidism*: An underactive thyroid gland can cause an elevated heart rate. However, this is less likely given your normal echo results. 6. *Mitral valve prolapse*: A condition where the mitral valve doesn't close properly, leading to palpitations and an elevated heart rate. *Next Steps* 1. *Consult a cardiologist*: Schedule an appointment to discuss your symptoms and determine the best course of action. 2. *Reduce caffeine intake*: Try limiting your tea consumption to 1-2 cups per day to see if your heart rate improves. 3. *Stay hydrated*: Drink plenty of water throughout the day to ensure proper hydration. 4. *Monitor your heart rate*: Keep track of your heart rate and palpitations to identify any patterns or triggers. 5. *Consider stress management techniques*: Engage in stress-reducing activities like meditation, yoga, or deep breathing exercises to help manage anxiety.

I'm feeling really cold since yesterday and there's this constant pain in my leg that just won't go away. I'm also experiencing dizziness along with full body aches; it was really bad last night. What could be causing all these symptoms? Should I be concerned or is there something I can do at home to feel better?
