Sandra Reyes said:There really aren't any magic pills for fatigue. If you're dealing with low blood pressure, that's just one of those symptoms you kind of have to learn to live with... I deal with it almost every single day myself.
My blood pressure is also incredibly low (right now, when it's acting "abnormal," it's sitting at 85/40-50), especially in the afternoons. It’s not uncommon for me to doze off during lectures if they get boring...🙂 🙈 ...even at the beach, regardless of whether the sun is scorching or not. 🙂 ...I totally get what you mean, especially when you actually need to focus, but there is some help out there—though someone here might call me out for suggesting this—
but if I were you, I'd suggest getting
ginkgo tablets. Make sure to grab the ones from a reliable brand like Walgreens because their film-coated versions are much easier on the stomach; I usually take a couple when I'm studying hard, and they really work if you take them consistently.
Besides that, I’d recommend staying hydrated, specifically with green tea, or maybe even a semi-fermented black tea if you're in Washington, D.C., where you can order it online from

I drink their ginkgo tea because it helps nudge my blood pressure up slightly, alongside the Walgreens tablets.
I'd also suggest their red semi-fermented tea because it really helps boost energy levels and concentration.
And of course, the final tip—drink coffee. Don't overdo it, obviously, but you probably already know your own body well enough to know when that heavy fatigue hits during the day—that's when you have a cup.
For example, I have about 2 or 3 a day. Some might say that's too much, but for me, it isn't; it really "wakes me up."
As for vitamins, the multi-complex from Nature's Bounty is great—honestly, maybe even the best one I've ever tried.
Also, try to avoid heavy meals. Especially with this heat, I don't think you should be eating anything greasy since it just makes you feel sluggish; stick to something light instead.
