Restoring Energy

Feeling persistently tired can make even simple daily tasks feel overwhelming. At Juniper Family Health, our naturopathic doctors take a root-cause approach to fatigue—looking beyond symptoms to uncover what’s truly draining your energy.

Fatigue often develops from a combination of medical, nutritional, and lifestyle factors. Understanding what’s behind your low energy is the first step toward helping your body and mind feel revitalized again.

Common Causes of Fatigue

  • Thyroid Imbalance (Hypothyroidism) – When thyroid hormones are low, metabolism slows, leading to fatigue, weight gain, and low mood.

  • Blood Sugar Imbalance or Insulin Resistance - Causes fluctuations in energy and mood.

  • Iron or B12 Deficiency – Low levels reduce oxygen delivery to tissues and impair nerve and brain function.

  • Chronic Stress or Burnout – Prolonged stress disrupts cortisol balance and depletes adrenal reserves.

  • Sleep Issues – Poor sleep quality, sleep apnea, or irregular routines can leave you unrefreshed.

  • Depression and Anxiety – Mental health changes often manifest physically as low energy and motivation.

  • Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS/ME) and Fibromyalgia - Conditions marked by fatigue, pain, and brain fog.

  • Post-Infectious Fatigue – After viral illnesses such as COVID-19, the body may experience lingering energy deficits.

  • LIfestyle and Environmental Factors - Such as physical inactivity, poor diet, dehydration, shift work or circadian disruption, and excess alcohol, caffeine, or nicotine use
