Fatigue is viewed as a major problem for many adults .and is defined as tiredness, weakness, lack of energy, and/or inability to concentrate.

The top causes of fatigue include sleep disorders such as sleep apnea and insomnia, depression or anxiety, thyroid problems, iron-deficiency anaemia, a poor diet, dehydration and medications. Try taking extra water a few times a day and if the fatigue persists, please talk to your doctor about finding the cause and the solution. Your doctor may send you to have your sleep evaluated, talk with a therapist/psychologist, or have a blood test to check for thyroid issues and iron deficient anaemia.

Chronic fatigue may signal other significant health issues including heart disease, cancer, diabetes, kidney disease, multiple sclerosis, or rheumatoid arthritis, all of which may cause prolonged weariness/tiredness. Likewise chronic infections such as Lyme disease and long COVID-19 may also be the sources of the chronic fatigue. From these conditions you can see the importance of consulting your doctor and investigating the cause of chronic fatigue if you suffer from it.
