JAKARTA - Not without reason, the body feels tired all the time. Even though you are not busy and do not spend time outside the room, feeling tired can be a sign that your health is declining.

To evaluate and get a solution immediately, here are the reasons the body is tired all the time. Have you been or are you feeling it?

Long time no exercise

After a full day of activities, time for exercise is consumed. Studies conducted at the University of Georgia show that adults who exercise three times a week for a duration of 20 minutes are less tired and more energetic after six weeks.

Regular exercise can increase endurance and help the cardiovascular system to be more efficient. The first reason to feel tired all the time is that it has taken a long time to not exercise or allow the body to actively move.

Lack of drinking water

Lack of drinking only 2 percent of what the body needs can affect energy levels. The body will lack fluids or become dehydrated. As a result, the blood volume decreases and makes the blood thicker.

The heart becomes less efficient at work and oxygen that should be needed is not properly distributed through blood circulation. The second cause of being tired all this time can be overcome by meeting the body's needs.

Lack of iron

Lack of iron can lead to lethargy, irritability, weakness, and lack of focus. Then increase your nutritional intake by consuming lean meat, kidney beans, tofu, eggs, dark green vegetables, peanut butter, and vitamin C.

Very perfectionist

Striving hard to be perfect makes working longer. According to a psychiatrist at New York University School of Medicine, Irene S. Levine, Ph.D., perfectionists often set unrealistic goals.

The end is difficult to achieve and often feels dissatisfied. Levine recommends setting a time limit for yourself. And obeying it will quickly realize that lingering after perfection will not make you happier and healthier.

Experiencing anxiety

Worrying about something that hasn't happened is unconsciously limiting. The mind dwells on anxiety and unconsciously drains energy. If you feel this, Levine suggests relaxing more, breathing deeply, and trying to do activities outside the room.

Often skip breakfast

When you wake up in the morning, you need to fill the nutritional needs that are burned for energy. Don't replace breakfast with just coffee. Coffee can be accompanied by whole-grain porridge, lean protein, or healthy fats.

It's hard to say 'no'

Pleasing others can cost you your own happiness and energy. This causes more irritability and irritation. The solution, practice saying 'no'. Try spending time on yourself.

Often in a messy place

Cluttered spaces can be mentally draining and limit your ability to focus. According to a study from Princeton University, it is advisable to rearrange the room so that it is tidier so that it can help the mind become more positive and more energized.

Never spend time on vacation

Keeping working even though the holidays can deprive the mind of relaxation and lack of rejuvenation of spirit. By spending vacation time and relaxing for a while can make someone more productive, creative, and work more effectively.
