Brief Answer:
Why not try High dose Vitamin C and Citrus diet with Glucose powder?

Detailed Answer:
Hi.

The most direct way to quickly increase you stamina and endurance is anything that contains high amounts of glucose in it. Since you are health conscious, I would not ask you to try ultra high caffeine drinks. I strongly suggest that you take between 2000 to 3000 mg of high dose Vitamin C with Orange and Cranberry Juice in particular. This will re boost and re vitalize you. Believe me. You do not need a doctors prescription or a doctor to purchase efferversent self dissolving Vitamin C tablets in your juice. I would ask you to stay away from high protein stuff and steroid injections that extreme bodybuilders are known to use.

I am confident that this will help you. Take an omeprazole capsule at night to prevent acidity.
