symptoms & testing
The cause of chronic fatigue is often stress. This means the adrenal glands (located at the top of each kidney) are producing the incorrect levels of cortisol (the primary stress hormone). We confirm that there are incorrect levels of cortisol using an Adrenal Stress Index (ASI) test.
Common symptoms of chronic fatigue include:
- Going to bed & waking up tired
- Joint pain
- Frequently feeling light-headed or dizzy
Natural remedies
The best remedy for chronic fatigue is regular sleep patterns of waking and going to bed at the same time each night including weekends. Therapeutic nutrition, herbal supplements, naturopathic medicine, balancing your hormones, supporting your adrenal glands & reducing cellular inflammation can also help the body regulate cortisol correctly.
The specific herbs used and their dosage depends upon the results of the ASI test and other diagnostic tests performed at our Wisconsin holistic wellness centers. We use the results found in our diagnostic tests to find the correct dosages & types of herbs that work best with your body.
