FATIGUE is a feeling of weariness, tiredness, or lack of energy that does not go away when you rest.

People may feel fatigued in body or mind (physical or psychological fatigue). Most of the time, fatigue can be traced to one or more of your habits or routines. Fatigue can be a normal and important response to physical exertion, poor eating habits, emotional stress or lack of sleep. In some cases, however, fatigue is a symptom of an underlying medical problem that requires medical treatment. When fatigue is not relieved by enough sleep, good nutrition or a low-stress environment. Here are some ways you can combat fatigue;

1 HAVE IRON RICH FOODS - GREEN LEAFY VEGGIES, BEANS, PEAS, LENTILS, WHOLE GRAINS DATES, NUTS JAGGERY.

2 ADDRESS THE ROOT CAUSE - GET YOUR BLOOD TESTS DONE TO RULE OUT - THYROID IMBALANCE, VIT D DEFICIENCY, IRON DEFICIENCY AND DIABETES.
