okay so today we’re going to talk about  the nine causes of lethargy now what is  

lethargy compared to fatigue well it’s  fatigue with a twist it’s fatigued with  

decreased activity you’re kind of apathetic  kind of depressed a little bit you’re lacking  

motivation you’re lacking creativity so that’s  what lethargy is now there are nine different  

causes so let’s just kind of run run through  the list number one sustain stress where  

you’re pushing your adrenals and pushing pushing  pushing and of course not recovering along the way  

let’s say that you have three small children right  and you’re working two jobs and you can’t sleep  

then you’re pushing yourself that’s called  sustain stress number two over training so  

you start working out and you’re doing crossfit  which is quite intense and you’re doing that every  

day you’re going to feel lethargy because you’re  not going to give your body a chance to recover  

next one lack of sleep well that  could come from sustained stress  

many weeks of not sleeping you are going to be  lethargic number four let’s say you’re studying  

right and you’re studying a technical  subject and there’s a lot of big words  

well if you keep pushing through these words  without looking them up you are going to be  

very tired and lethargic this is why we have  dictionaries all right number five excessive  

stimulants so you’re tired and you’re  drinking red bull drinking coffee all day  

you will start feeling lethargic all right number  six hidden infections now this can be either like  

epstein-barr virus which you had maybe a long  time ago that’s being reactivated because you’re  

under sustained stress stress will reactivate  viruses that have been in remission or dormant  

also you could have like a little cavitation  underneath a tooth a tooth infection and that  

can create a lot of us inflammation fatigue  even arthritis so any type of hidden infection  

even lyme disease that could actually be a  situation where you’re lethargic all the time  

all right number seven emfs electromagnetic fields  i’ve done different videos on this topic i’m going  

to do more but this thing right here if you’re  like on your cell phone all day or you’re in for  

your computer all day with your headphones you are  going to feel lethargic now i’m going to give you  

a lot of solutions for that all right number eight  old injuries now i’ll come back to that in a bit  

number nine nutritional deficiencies will  definitely cause you to be lethargic so  

these are all the potential causes but how do  you really find out which one is behind your  

lethargy well you need to isolate number one  where this lethargy is located is it in your head  

is it in your sinuses is  it in the back of your neck  

is it in your front of your neck is it in  your chest like where is this lethargy located  

that will give you clues so for example let’s  say you had mono when you’re in high school  

which is epstein-barr virus and now it’s like  years later and you feel a lot of heaviness  

and lethargy around your neck okay well some of  that virus can get reactivated and so there are  

various things that you can do for that situation  i put a link down below let’s say your lethargy  

is in your head okay and you had some head  trauma well old injuries especially in the head  

can make you lethargic years later now i  put a link down below of how to address head  

injuries one day i had a patient when i was in  practice have this serious lethargy and insomnia  

for years and come to find out it all occurred  after this car accident where this huge box  

you know fell off of a truck in front of her and  fell on her head and so i did some work on her  

as far as i addressed this injury and i’m going  to show you the technique in the link down below  

and when i was done doing this technique her  whole face changed i said go look in the mirror  

she looked in the mirror she looked younger  she actually looked like the sense of relief  

because old injuries tend to accumulate and  apparently that injury still stuck in her skull  

and creating problems years later interesting  connection but you wouldn’t normally connect the  

dots unless someone brought it up as a potential  problem so let’s say for example this lethargy  

is like in your chest and maybe it all started  after you had pneumonia or some lung infection  

again these are just clues to try to pull  out what the potential problem is when did  

your lethargy start exactly and what did you do  just before that that will also give you clues on  

what could be causing your lethargy for example  let’s say you had you changed your diet and you  

went on a high carb diet and you created all these  nutritional deficiencies well then we know that’s  

through cause i mean you just want to find out  when it started and what might have triggered it  

that’s going to give you a lot of information  and you’d be surprised how many doctors don’t  

ever ask that one question you can get a huge  clue on what could be causing the problem  

because there’s always something that occurs  right before you get a specific symptom  

and then what i would recommend is test out one  theory at a time and see what it is so for example  

if it’s if you think it’s over training stop  exercising for a week and see if your lethargy  

goes away let’s say there’s a hidden infection  well you can take oregano oil garlic which can  

actually help your immune system and see if you  feel better now this also brings up another point  

i’ve had patients come in and tell me they  go to the doctor they’re given an antibiotic  

and they have all these positive benefits  like energy and their arthritis goes away  

when they’re trying to handle some bacterial  infection but all these other benefits come up  

because they had this other infection going on  at the same time that was zapping their energy  

so in that case what’s the solution do you just  keep taking antibiotics no you build up your  

immune system you take natural antibodies like  oregano and garlic and clove and even thyme all  

these things can actually clear out infections  not to mention going in on a long fast can do  

it as well so you just want to go down the list  and start to rule things out emf electromagnetic  

fields let’s say you stay away from your computer  for a couple days and oh my gosh you feel so much  

better because you change your environment so  anyway these are some tips some things you can do  

and also uh some additional possible causes  that you may have not have thought about  

and additionally some potential causes that maybe  you weren’t aware of before you go if you have a  

question about a product or you’re new to keto and  you want to know how to begin keto or you’re on  

keto and you need a debug because it’s not going  as smooth i have a keto consultant standing by
