It's probably not the healthiest or natural way to get energy, but this is what works for me.

Have you tryed stimulants? I take adderall to help me through the day. If I dont, i feel like a zombie all day. My doctor gives me a perscription of 30 miligrams of adderall to help with my energy

Ginseng and Astragalus combination seem to help my energy more than anything else i've tried. I didn't start taking these until I finished antibiotic treatment so I'm not sure if they are good to take with medications. Good luck.

ginseng works great and is an adaptogen so it is very healthy

I'm following Stephen Buhner's herbal protocol for lyme and since starting Eleuthero (siberian ginseng) I have felt more awake/clear headed than I have in YEARS.

I know this sounds gross, but I've started coffee enemas, and I think it gives me more energy. Not a caffeine high, just feel a bit lighter. (For obvious reasons, perhaps, I don't really know the mechanics of it, but online you can find as much as I know!)

I tried FRS (free radical savanger) endorsed by Lance Armstrong, only 1/4 to half cup of caffine from green tea and it's really good. It's non carbonated and it's good for you, full of quercitin which is found in blueberry and kale. You can buy it from Rite Aid in the GNC section. I like it better than red bull or zipfizz which gives me jitters, this does not.
