Chronic Fatigue Support

Beyond rest: evidence-based strategies for sustained energy

Persistent fatigue is one of the most common complaints in clinical practice, yet it remains poorly understood. Our practitioners investigate the underlying causes of low energy — from mitochondrial dysfunction and nutrient deficiencies to thyroid imbalance and chronic inflammation — to develop targeted, personalised recovery programmes.

How We Help

Comprehensive Testing

We recommend targeted blood work including iron studies, thyroid panel, vitamin D, B12, folate, and HbA1c to identify common but often overlooked causes of fatigue.

Mitochondrial Nutrition

Supporting cellular energy production with evidence-based nutrients including CoQ10, B vitamins, magnesium, alpha-lipoic acid, and D-ribose where clinically indicated.

Blood Sugar Regulation

Dysglycaemia is a frequently missed contributor to fatigue. We optimise meal timing, macronutrient balance, and dietary composition to stabilise energy throughout the day.

Sleep Optimisation

Sleep quality directly impacts energy levels. We address sleep hygiene, circadian rhythm alignment, and nutritional factors that influence sleep architecture.

Stress Resilience

Chronic stress depletes energy reserves and impairs mitochondrial function. We provide practical stress management tools alongside adrenal support strategies.

Graded Activity Planning

Appropriate movement supports energy production, but overexertion can worsen fatigue. We help you find the right balance with structured activity programmes.

Frequently Asked Questions

What might be causing my chronic fatigue?+
Chronic fatigue can stem from many causes including nutrient deficiencies (iron, B12, vitamin D, magnesium), thyroid dysfunction, blood sugar imbalance, chronic inflammation, poor sleep quality, chronic stress, and mitochondrial dysfunction. Our practitioners investigate these systematically.
Is this the same as ME/CFS?+
Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) is a specific diagnosis with defined criteria, including post-exertional malaise. Our fatigue support programmes can help people with ME/CFS, as well as those with unexplained fatigue that does not meet ME/CFS criteria. We work within established guidelines.
What tests should I have done?+
A good starting point includes full blood count, iron studies (including ferritin), thyroid function (TSH, free T4, free T3), vitamin D, B12 and folate, and HbA1c. Your practitioner may recommend additional functional testing based on your symptoms.
How long before I notice more energy?+
Some individuals notice improvements within 2-4 weeks of addressing nutrient deficiencies or blood sugar regulation. More complex cases involving mitochondrial support or chronic inflammation may take 2-3 months. We set realistic expectations and track progress carefully.
Can supplements help with fatigue?+
Targeted supplementation can be very helpful when guided by testing and clinical assessment. Common evidence-based options include CoQ10, B vitamins, magnesium, iron (when deficient), and vitamin D. We always recommend supplements based on individual need rather than generic protocols.
