Chronic fatigue is a common complaint that naturopathic doctors see. Many conventional treatment approaches do not offer an explanation for the symptom nor can they offer long-term symptom relief. One of the guiding principles of naturopathic medicine is to identify and treat the cause of disease. The first step is to understand why the body is not able to sustain normal energy production. We will look at possible underlying causes such as chronic infection, anemia, mitochondrial stressors, sleep disorders, nutrient dysregulation, digestive disorders, and thyroid or adrenal disorders. With a targeted approach, we can restore energy, health, and vitality.

Diabetes mellitus is an example of a condition that can be effectively managed and even overcome in some cases. There are many research studies on diet, exercise, supplements and even botanicals that can almost always reverse elevated blood glucose levels. A comprehensive patient centered plan may include  improving insulin resistance through diet, lifestyle hacks, targeted supplements and herbs, effective medication management, and comprehensive lab analysis. Diabetes can be life threatening and have full-body impacts so treatment looks to protect organs from the harmful effects of chronically elevated glucose levels.
