Feeling like you need just a little more caffeine to make it through the day...or the weeks...or the months?

Fatigue can be a natural response to working too much and sleeping too little, but it can also be the result of other issues going on beneath the surface.

Some causes of fatigue are serious medical issues that need to be treated by a qualified healthcare provider. Examples include things like anemia, hypothyroidism, diabetes, or high blood pressure. It’s always important to be evaluated to rule out anything serious!

But what if you’ve seen a doctor and ruled out anything serious and still just seem to feel tired all the time?

That’s when it’s time to look deeper.

In functional medicine, we look beyond just the diagnosis to explore patterns in your biochemistry that might be keeping you tired and unwell. It’s an outside-the-box sort of thinking that looks for possibilities like:

Micronutrient insufficiencies
Food sensitivities
Low-grade inflammation
Detoxification pathways
Gut and digestive function
Hormone metabolism
Exposures to environmental toxins
Mold-related issues
And more!!

Basically, we do the detective work to get to the root cause of what’s making you tired. Then we focus on fixing that.
