Super tired

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
Help me help a friend.
I have a friend who is in her mid 20's and is tired all the time. She has gone to the dr and they did labs (not sure what all) and they all came back normal. She is so tired that she doesn't remember waking up or being woken but she feels like she sleeps well.

She is going to go back into the dr. but I/she was wondering if there were any supplements that would help.

Thanks so much, if you need anymore info please let me know.

Has she had a sleep test done (I think that's what they're called?). My friend's cousin was exhausted all the time and it turns out he has sleep apnea so is actually waking multiple times at night. (He doesn't remember waking up at all).

Also she should make sure to get her serum ferritin level checked (iron stores). She might have had her "iron levels" checked, but often drs check hemoglobin but not ferritin levels.

Besides that she might benefit from nettle infusion as that can help adrenal fatigue and is just all-around good for you.

There has been no sleep study done, and thank you! I will pass this onto to her!
