Commonly Missed Nutrients

Depletion of these nutrients are a common contributor of fatigue and other symptoms.

Nutrient deficiencies occur from a variety of reasons, but a really big one is excessive stress. Our bodies are trying to maintain homeostasis all the time and when we’re stressed and off-balance, we require a greater quantity of some nutrients and can go into deficit.

Another big reason for nutrient deficiencies is the use of medications.

The biggest Nutrient-Depleting Offenders are:
πŸ’Š Anti-depressants
πŸ’Š Birth control pills
πŸ’Š Statins
πŸ’Š Blood pressure medications
πŸ’Š Metformin
