Description
This episode breaks down chronic fatigue: what it actually is, how it's different from stress and burnout, and the real medical causes that often get missed - anemia and iron deficiency, thyroid problems, sleep apnea, vitamin D deficiency, and post-infection fatigue, among others. Dr. Sompa also covers how fatigue shows up differently depending on age and gender, debunks common myths about caffeine and rest, and lays out the warning signs that mean it's time to see a doctor rather than wait it out.
