Symptoms of Fatigue: Straight Facts that You Can Use Now
To easily understand what you need to do to cope with symptoms of fatigue, you must have a guide on how your body actually works. To understand basic body functions, you don’t need a medical degree. At the time of birth, Nature endowed each of us with the ability to maintain our health. This has been understood for centuries and is known “as the healing force of Nature.” But this is like a bank account: when funds are removed, they must be re-filled.
Disease is actually a fight for health. And symptoms represent that fight. But symptoms should come and then go away after restoring one to balance. Symptoms that go on and on mean that the fight to restore health isn’t being won. This is the nature of chronic fatigue.
Inflammation is actually generated by the body in an effort to heal itself. But, a great deal of medicine’s efforts have been the development of drugs to fight inflammation. The result is that there is a reduction in inflammation, but the causes of inflammation remain and continue to damage your body.
Inflammation is a fight for health and there are five cardinal signs:
* pain * heat * redness * swelling * loss of function
These five aspects of the inflammation response are generated as one becomes afflicted with chronic fatigue.
So Many People Suffer from Chronic Fatigue. Why?
We all have the ability to maintain our health. I call this our healing bank account. We were born with a certain amount and we have to maintain it to remain healthy. When too many withdrawals are made, then we can no longer fight for our health and this is when chronic fatigue and its symptoms take over.
There are multiple causes of chronic fatigue:
* too much stress * environmental pollutants * lack of exercise * post viral * emotional stress * drug-induced changes in cellular function * diet
This complicated picture of various possible causes is more than medicine can deal with because it’s only comfortable with one cause and one disease.
There are no drugs for the symptoms of chronic fatigue. Since there are no accepted causes, effective therapies do not exist. Is it likely there will ever be any drugs? I don’t think so. The symptoms are from the body fighting for its health. The way to help is to help the body do what it’s trying to do.
In alternative thinking, symptoms represent the body’s fight for health and therapies must support them. People are now looking for alternative disciplines in their fight against chronic fatigue. This isn’t supported by medicine and you have to be careful as there are a lot of for-profit people selling lots of misinformation.
Suppressing symptoms is what we all want, but is it the right direction? That answer is no. But there is another way. By using alternative therapies that actually support the symptoms, you can get rid of the underlying thing that’s causing the symptoms and get rid of both at the same time.
