stress

While occasional stress is typical, chronic stress can cause exhaustion and potentially lead to stress-related exhaustion disorder, affecting both mental and physical health.

too much caffeine

While caffeine initially boosts energy, excessive consumption harms sleep, leading to morning tiredness. People then use more caffeine, perpetuating poor sleep patterns.

obesity induces fatigue due to increased physical effort, sleep disturbances, hormonal imbalances, inflammation, psychological factors, joint strain, cardiovascular stress, poor diet, and psychological stress. Consult a healthcare professional for assistance.

inadequate hydration

adequate hydration is vital for energy, as daily bodily processes cause water loss. Dehydration, from insufficient fluid intake, reduces energy and focus. Personal needs vary. Symptoms include thirst, fatigue, dizziness, and headaches.

nutrient deficiency

Nutrient deficiencies, such as iron, B12, vitamin D, folate, magnesium, and potassium, disrupt vital functions like oxygen transport, nerve health, and energy production, causing persistent fatigue.

poor diet

Diet greatly impacts your well-being. A balanced, nutrient-rich diet sustains energy and health, while poor diets can cause fatigue and muscle loss.

Stress, insufficient sleep, a poor diet, and other aspects of one's lifestyle are common causes of fatigue. The causes should be noted if you believe you are experiencing fatigue, which is a severe sense of exhaustion that is not alleviated by rest and sleep.
