Chronic Fatigue

About

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) is a multi-factorial, challenging condition with many possible underlying causes and contributory factors.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) is often referred to as myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME). There is some debate over the correct terminology, however, both are debilitating long-term conditions that can severely impact day-to-day life.

CFS can affect anyone, but is more common in women, and is most likely to develop between mid-20’s and mid-40’s.

Symptoms

Stress and high-intensity exercise can make symptoms worse, and severity of symptoms can vary from day to day.

  • Extreme tiredness Muscle or joint pain
  • Persistent headaches and sore throat
  • Dizziness / sickness
  • Flu-like symptoms and feeling generally unwell
  • Heart palpitations
  • Cognitive issues – difficulty concentrating / poor memory

Causes

There is no known definitive cause for CFS, however, there are a number of factors believed to trigger the condition, which include:

  • Viral infections (particularly glandular fever)
  • Hormone imbalances
  • Stress / trauma / depression
  • Pneumonia and other bacterial infections
  • Deficient immune system
  • Potential genetic link

Treatments

CFS is usually a symptom-based diagnosis, however, there are a number of functional tests that can be run to help identify issues that may be driving the condition.

Testing to identify nutritional status can reveal any vitamin and mineral deficiencies that may be affecting energy production. These tests can also expose potential microbiome imbalances and intestinal permeability (leaky gut) that may cause malabsorption or blood sugar imbalances, which can affect energy levels.

Testing the adrenal function can detect any imbalances of DHEA and cortisol, which can affect circadian rhythm. An imbalance of these hormones can affect sleep patterns, energy levels and emotional state.

Underlying viral infections (such as Epstein-Barr, CMV and Herpes), as well as heavy metal toxicity can impact the body’s ability to detoxify effectively and can affect energy levels.

Testimonials

I had been suffering with Chronic fatigue, Fibromyalgia and Small Fiber Neuropathy for over 22 years. The constant pain in my hands, legs and feet meant I wasn’t able to wear heels for over 8 years and had to have my house adapted to accommodate a stair lift and my bathroom converted to a wet room. Since starting the Total Body Reset Program, within the first few weeks I became pain-free which was the first time I’ve experienced having no pain in almost 10 years. The constant feeling of total exhaustion began to subside, my sleep has completely improved, almost like night and day and I no longer use the walking stick or crutches I needed for the days I couldn’t walk properly. I’m slowly beginning to wear my heels again and my hair that had been falling out has now started to grow back again! There have been so many positive changes just within the first few weeks alone. I am on the second phase, have lost loads of weight and looking forward to even greater results on this amazing lifestyle change program.
