Fatigue
Are you constantly exhausted and don’t know why?
Do you wake up tired, even after a full night’s sleep?
Do you feel like you’re dragging yourself through the day?
Are you struggling to figure out why you aren’t functioning your best?
Addressing Fatigue
Blood Glucose Monitoring
A common cause of fatigue is imbalanced blood glucose. Your dietitian can help you learn how consuming carbohydrates can affect your blood glucose, as well as how to maintain healthy levels. Through blood glucose monitoring, you can increase your energy levels and improve your fatigue! We also have some recipes to help keep your blood sugar in check and to help you make quick and easy meals.
Micronutrient Testing
We have several testing options to help find out what the cause of your fatigue is. First, we have food sensitivity testing that tests 120 foods and 30 chemicals to determine what level of sensitivities you have. Based on these results, your dietitian can help you develop a meal plan. We also offer vitamin and mineral deficiency testing, which is used to determine if you should be taking supplements and, if so, which ones would increase your energy.
Meal Planning
Once your dietitian helps you learn what foods or dietary habits might be causing your fatigue, they can help you make a meal plan to develop better habits that leave you energized. This might include keeping track of carbohydrate intake, supplementing your vitamin or mineral consumption, or limiting foods that you might have a sensitivity to. Whatever you discover your needs are, your dietitian can help you make a plan!
Accountability
Have you ever said, “I know what i need to do, I just need to do it” You will be able to communicate with your dietitian with this amazing app Nourishly to help you manage your fatigue. Communication is the key to success and this app allows you to keep food logs, blood sugar levels and photos of your food so your dietitian can help you meet your goals.
