In today’s episode, Dr. Carrie Jones is joined by Dr. Evan Hirsch, Founder of The EnergyMD. They discuss fatigue, ten categories to examine potential causes, and Dr. Evan's four-step process to improve it. Key Takeaways: Fatigue Causes: There are thirty-three causes for fatigue, and every person should figure out which ones they have. These causes can be divided into deficiencies of hormones, vitamins, minerals, neurotransmitters, healthy lifestyle habits, and toxicities which cause about eighty percent of the deficiencies. There's More Than One Cause Of Fatigue: Everybody who has low energy has a combination of twenty-plus causes, and part of this has to do with the fact that there are deficiencies. For example, if you have molds plus an infection, that can cause adrenals, thyroid, or mitochondrial deficiencies. Examples Of Toxicities: A toxin is an environmental element that gets into your body and is not supposed to be there. These are things like heavy metals, chemicals, molds, infections, allergies, negative emotional patterns, and electromagnetic fields. The Four-Step EnergyMD Method: The first step is to assess. Out of the thirty-three causes, seventy-five percent of those can be determined by symptoms, while twenty-five percent need lab testing. And you need to figure out which of those twenty-plus causes you have. The second step is replacing the deficiencies, the third is opening up the drainage pathways, and the fourth is removing the toxins. COVID After Effects: COVID is a big fatigue contributor, which causes over 250 different symptoms at this point, and it's a reason why we're seeing so many young people get sick. If you've got COVID and have persistent symptoms that started with it, that means you have an active live virus and you need to ensure that you're addressing it. But what's interesting is the difference between somebody who ends up getting long covid and somebody who doesn't has to do a lot with the toxicities that they already have. So if you have heavy metals, chemicals, molds, and other infections, you're a lot more likely to end up with long covid.
