Chronic Fatigue & Weakness
Around 2.5 million people in the U.S. are suffering from Chronic Fatigue
Finding and Treating The Root Cause Of Your Symptoms
Fatigue is one of the most common symptoms reported by patients. It often stems from lack of sleep and too much stress coupled with low hormones, nutrient deficiencies and/or excesses of toxic chemicals.
Each of the 70 trillion cells in your body have multiple mitochondria, which produce energy like a furnace. The quality of this energy is determined by the raw materials provided. Lack of oxygen, electrons, peptides, hormones, minerals, vitamins, or glutathione will impair energy production.
​
Next time you feel fatigued, think about your cell's need for raw materials to make energy. A simple blood, urine or saliva test will provide the clues you need to feel good again.
