Sales of pick-me-up/energy supplements have shot up 27% in the past year* as burnt out Brits struggle to cope with the mental and physical demands of increasingly stressful lifestyles.
Tiredness is a common problem in the UK with, at any given time, one in every five people feeling unusually tired, according to The Royal College of Psychiatrists**.
If you are feeling tired, mentally or physically, after a busy day of back-to-back meetings, hot footing it around the shops or pouring over your tax return, Bach Original Flower Remedy Olive can help to restore the mental stamina required to finish the day’s tasks on top form. It won’t give you an artificial boost like a pep pill, but it helps to recharge our batteries naturally. Simply add two drops to a cup of tea or water four times a day.
Bach Original Flower Remedies cost from £5.95 and are available from Holland & Barrett, Boots and most independent pharmacy and health food stores. For more information, visit www.bachremedies.co.uk. Always read the label.
