Anti Fatigue

Fatigue - Causes and Treatment

Suffering from fatigue can slow your reflexes which reduces what you can do in your daily life. This type of tiredness is a known risk factor in motor vehicle and workplace accidents. It can be a difficult thing to control as you do not have the strength, motivation and desire to get rid of it. This then feeds back onto itself so that you are cannot think clearly enough to resolve it.

When you feel tired and do not want to do anything, it can be fatigue rather than just normal tiredness. Fatigue is a symptom with a cause. It is not a specific disorder or disease. If you suffer from fatigue, you feel tired all the time, in your mind and body.

First, the time spent standing in a work cell can take a toll on an operator's body. When an operator stands or walks on hard flooring for more than two hours a day, it greatly increases the chances of foot, leg, or lower back pain. In a situation where this occurs, it is recommended that anti-fatigue or ergonomic matting is placed in the work cell. With the new materials on the market today, there is little excuse why you could not put a ergonomic mat in almost any environment.

Other life changes that cause fatigue are bereavement and grief for a lost loved one, unemployment and job instability, a serious illness, working with unreasonable employers, and many others. Studies find more and more people are worried about money, causing them to feel constant pressure and stress –leading to chronic fatigue. Some people are also born ‘natural worriers,' which causes constant fatigue.

The real causes of fatigue are still unknown, but doctors and scientists know what factors usually precede them. Read on to understand these factors so that you can find ways to avoid them.

Life changes. Life-altering events can cause mental and physical fatigue. Among the many fatigue-inducing events, divorce is still takes the lead. Divorce causes a lot of stress, and when it is not eliminated, can eventually lead to chronic fatigue.

Currently, there is matting specific for the following environments; autoclavable mats, food production mats, welding mats, chemical resistance mats, clean room mats, grease resistant mats and many more. A comfortable employee can not only make the working environment more positive, but can also reduce the number of breaks needed due to fatigue.

Adrenal glands are responsible for synthesizing corticosteroids and catecholamines. In addition, the glands also secrete hormones like cortisol and adrenaline. Cortisol is a steroidal hormone, while adrenaline is a neurotransmitter. Cortisol helps to cope with stress and strain that a person suffers from because of work or personal issues.

Food supplements. Food supplements or ‘immune enhancers' may help the chronic fatigue syndrome patient rebuild stamina. They are also used to cure viral infections that may be causing the fatigue in the first place.

If your adrenal glands do not function properly, the level of cortisol in your body decreases. This can cause fatigue, and it is this fatigue that is known as adrenal fatigue. In addition, you will face problems with your blood sugar levels.

Antibiotics and antifungal products. The same antibiotics used to remedy lyme disease and mycoplasma virus are sometimes prescribed to patients suffering from chronic fatigue syndrome. The same is the case for antifungal drugs that are primarily used to treat yeast and fungus infections – they can be used, together with a low-carbohydrate diet, to treat chronic fatigue syndrome in some patients.

Hormones. Doctors prescribe hormones for chronic fatigue syndrome patients who fall within a hormonally imbalanced category. They can be given steroids and thyroid hormones.
