Published on 18/05/2022Are you constantly tired and sleepy? You're not alone if you're tired all the time or have little energy. Most of us have experienced being fatigued, especially after suffering from a cold, flu, or another viral infection. However, if you're constantly tired and have a lack of energy without any significant reason, it may be time to check with your doctor.
Chronic fatigue can harm your quality of life. In most cases, fatigue can be remedied by proper lifestyle or dietary modifications. Still, if you want to reduce fatigue, you need to figure out what's causing it. It’s important to understand that it’s abnormal to feel exhausted all the time. If you feel tired frequently, there’s likely one or more causes. Getting proper treatment for an underlying medical condition can make you feel better and help you improve other areas of health as well.
Getting enough sleep is essential for overall health growth. During sleep, the body performs numerous functions, including the release of important growth hormones and the repair and regeneration of cells. Inadequate or low quality sleep can lead to fatigue and even insomnia. If you’re experiencing insomnia, get advice from the doctor.
Even if you receive more than 7 hours of sleep, nutrient deficiencies can make you feel exhausted on a daily basis. Fatigue can be caused by nutrient deficiencies, such as iron and vitamins B12 and D. The doctor can do tests for nutrient deficiencies and suggest appropriate treatment.
