Drugs, caffeine, alcohol use up B vitamins which are your energy vitamins. They are hard to find in the American diet of white processed foods today. Allergies to food can cause fatigue too. The symptoms are not just sinus related.

Someone here mentioned water, that will help de-tox you by washing out any toxins in your cells. Besides that caffeine dehydrates you. 80% of the people do not drink enough water. Go for 70 ozs a day. I'd buy bottled Volvic for at least a month for the natural trace minerals. It's not cheap but it's really good water. Then switch back to your regular water.

I realize, I am giving you a recommendation that is a lifestyle change that is not easy or even popular. But it works long term. Helps if you have someone assisting you.

This is good. Lifestyle change is what I'm aiming for. Aiming for natural energy from food and good health rather than this fake quick fix that will maybe last an hour, then the fatigue sits in again. I'm just wondering what a decade of energy drinks has done to my body that I don't realize.

Yeah, it does affect your body after that long. It's gonna take some strong discipline plus. Read some good nutrition books at least. Balanced B complex plus Niacin ( as they only use niacinamide) are energy vitamins. That's what Brewer's yeast is high in.

I suffered from horrific fatigue after having a C section and a baby. I just happened to come across an allergy specialist and nutritionist internal medicine chiro, who isolated what the cause was and I had a resurgence in energy. I drink coffee in moderation—mainly just a cup or two in the morning. I know what foods affect me or bring my energy down. I only went to her after regular doctors could find no pathology in my blood work. You don't need to have a disease or illness to suffer from some poor health issues. However, long term they can become something worse if not attended to earlier. It's just preventive healthcare.

Dude, just suffer through a few days of being tired. Your body rebounds faster than you think. Unless there is some property specific to energy drinks that I don't know about, it shouldn't be this hard.
