Reducing Fatigue and Increasing Energy
with Natural Holistic Medicine
Your body has over 50,000 biochemical reactions taking place each day. A good number of them involve creating energy to support all the other activities of your body as well as providing the get-up-and-go for doing the things you need to do in the world.
When you don't have enough energy you struggle getting things done. You don't have motivation and enthusiasm for living. You may even get depressed and lethargic. Your quality of life suffers.
And if you try to overcome this by drinking lots of coffee or energy drinks, you may get a temporary boost, but there will be an inevitable crash sooner or later. These are only short term solutions for a longer term problem.
If any of the above sounds like what you are experiencing, there are ways to restore your natural vitality and energy level using natural techniques. These techniques aren't just temporary fixes but go to the root of the problem to correct it for good. For more than 38 years, I've been privileged to work with many people in helping restore their energy and quality of life.
What natural methods work best for increasing energy levels?
- Metabolic TypingŪ (MT) - Food is the 'fuel' that our bodies run on. Because of this, it forms the basis of every biochemical change in our bodies. In fact, Oriental medicine makes a direct connection between your energy level and the foods you eat. In addition, we need to make sure you are getting all the goodness from your foods you can. And, because every person needs slightly different foods and balance of proteins, fats and carbohydrates to function at their best, I like to use Metabolic TypingŪ to uncover the best foods to fuel your body. These will be unique to you, allowing you to take advantage of the most powerful drug you will ever take... food.
- Functional Diagnostic Medicine - Chronic stress impacts our bodies in numerous ways. Over time, the pattern of constantly feeling stressed sets in, robbing the body of energy and support for healthy functioning. This is often the underlying cause of many problems ranging from fatigue and hormone imbalances to joint pain and lack of focus. By uncovering and then correcting these issues at a deeper level, we can break the cycle of chronic stress and help return to an optimal level of everyday functioning.
- Herbal Medicine - Oriental herbs include a category called tonic herbs. Tonic herbs act to reinforce energy, blood and other qualities of the body to increase strength and balance. Some of these formulas are suitable for taking for extended periods of time when you need to rebuild your strength. The key is taking the right formula for your unique situation.
- Nutritional Supplements - Often, lack of energy results from not getting enough of the vitamins, minerals and other nutrients so important for healthy energy levels. Because modern foods don't contain the amount or variety of these substances that they used to, it's important to take the right supplements to support your unique health situation.
- Neurotransmitter Testing (NT) - If fatigue and lack of energy also come poor memory, foggy thinking and anxiety or depression. Neurotransmitter testing can spot any brain chemistry imbalances that may be present. Then, by using natural supplements we can restore healthy balance in brain chemistry to improve concentration, sleep and memory.
- Acupuncture & Acupressure - Acupuncture/acupressure helps regulate energy in the body. By removing blocks to stuck energy and supporting the body's ability to generate more, you are better able to overcome fatigue and lack of motivations.
- Mediator Release Testing (MRT) - Food sensitivities have a strong affect on our energy levels and every other part of our health and well-being. And because drops in energy related to food reactions can occur up to 3 days after eating a reactive food, it's very difficult to identify which food is a problem. With MRT we can identify these foods and then remove the foods causing problems. This often creates dramatic improvements in a short time.
- Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA) - Toxic heavy metals in the body (lead, aluminum, mercury, etc.) can act as blocking factors getting in the way of your body's natural ability to heal. With HTMA we can discover and then clear these toxins naturally. Your body becomes more able to create the energy you need to function well.
The approach or combination of approaches that will give you the fastest, most reliable results depends on your health history, the underlying pattern of imbalance in your body, and a variety of other factors unique to you.
The bottom line is that if you have fatigue, chronic tiredness, or any other serious health issues, there are natural ways to help alleviate the problem.
