Yes! Usually, individuals with proper nutrition and an active lifestyle should be full of energy. Unfortunately it seems that many people cannot function without their morning cup of coffee. For some, the lack of energy and chronic fatigue makes even starting the day or getting out of bed an exhaustive task.
Common symptoms include:
- complete exhaustion even after a full night of sleep
- sluggishness
- complete loss of energy
- intense fatigue causing you to sleep for much of the day
- trouble maintaining energy
- trouble getting up in the morning
- intense brain fog
- groggy
- memory problems
- inability to concentrate
- total lack of focus
- feeling run down
There are many factors that contribute to this feeling of complete lethargy:
1) Lack of sleep, chronic sleep problems, insomnia
2) Mood disorders, depression, tragic life occurrences such as death of a loved one
3) An unrealistically busy schedule
4) Hormonal disruptions caused by a variety of diseases (ie. hypothyroidism, menopause, etc)
Any one of these factors or a combination of many of them can result in debilitating symptoms leaving you exhausted, tired, disinterested, and unable to perform even the simplest of tasks. Unfortunately, covering up your symptoms with medications, caffeine, or necessity may lead to the worsening of your symptoms, or ‘crashes’ throughout the day. If you’re not sure why you feel so energy deficient, it may be due to a hormonal-associated problem.
Each of the 14 ingredients in our Thyroid Support has been carefully selected to address and assist a host of biochemical and physiological processes that are linked to hormones in some way. Let’s explore some of them in scientific articles.
