THIS IS WHAT’S DRAINING YOUR ENERGY
Jun 21, 2023
More sleep isn’t the answer to your lingering fatigue
Sure, more rest can definitely help you feel less tired, but you need to address what the underlying issue is that’s draining your energy in the first place
You might see this everywhere, but gut inflammation is very closely linked to fatigue
If your body is constantly inflamed from the foods you’re eating, the stress you’re feeling, or not recovering effectively from training, it will really start to zap your energy levels
REASONS GUT INFLAMMATION IS MAKING YOU FEEL TIRED
These are the top 3 reasons why gut inflammation is causing you to feel tired all of the time:
1. You’re not absorbing nutrients from your food
Gut inflammation can lead to poor nutrient absorption, meaning you’re not getting enough vitamins and minerals from the food you’re eating, leading to fatigue and low energy.
2. Your immune system is running in overdrive
The immune system uses so much energy to fight inflammation and repair damaged tissues, which can take away from your daily energy stores and make you feel fatigued.
3. Your hormonal balance is completely disrupted
Gut inflammation negatively affects the production of hormones, particularly cortisol, causing imbalances that could be contributing to your decreased energy levels and your feelings of fatigue.
