Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/ Low Energy
Chronic Fatigue may be caused by a mixture of infections, with
several pathogens involved. Environmental pollutants and
contaminants also contribute to Chronic Fatigue Syndrome by reducing immune
response. Chronic Fatigue acts like recurring systemic viral
infection, viruses that often go undetected because their symptoms mimic simple
illnesses like colds, flu, or mononucleosis.
Low Energy is common place in our lives today.
Fatigue is difficult to describe, or at times even to
understand why. You feel like you don't have any energy and are
tired all the time. Many people comment, " I am tired or being tired".
You are so tired, but there seems to be no reason. You haven't been scampering
about, completing errands all day, physical exertion, or doing some other
strenuous chore. Though you are mentally and physically exhausted. With fatigue,
Low energy, you feel generally tired all the time, find yourself napping
constantly, falling asleep while watch television, lose interest in family,
friends, and things you normally like to do.
The stress of work, family, and financial obligations, can take its toll on
anyone. At times depression, anxiety are the real issue, and not
fatigue. The depression is making you fatigue.
Sleep plays a huge factor into this health issue.
Restful sleep, is necessary for health. Many people comment I get 7 hours
of sleep. The real issue is not the amount, but are you waking up all times
of the next, even if it is for a split second. Why do we wake up? Physical
causes are estimated at 20-60%, and emotional causes are the other 40-80%
