It seems unanimous. Nowadays, it is very common to hear fatigue complaints in the people routine. Many people ask: how it happens even when we sleep well? Precisely because sleep is not the only factor that determines mood.

Fatigue is actually a manifestation of a lack of energy cells, which can be caused by nutrient deficiency or absence of an adequate control in the production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the molecule responsible for this energy.

Sleep is therefore only one of the factors that help us to fight fatigue. To put an end to it, we must adjust our habits. You can make the days profitable and feel better in all activities when adopting healthier attitudes.

See six major attitudes that lead to fatigue:

  1. Lack of proper sleep – not sleeping the needed hours, or to have poor sleep quality, affects the body recovery;
  2. Physical activity excess – Associated with the lack of resting and an inadequate diet, could lead to the body energy collapse;
  3. Inadequate nutrition – A balanced diet composed of macro and micro nutrients in appropriate amounts, divided in every three hours portions and moisturizing with at least 1.5 water liter per day provides the required nutrients to avoid fatigue;
  4. Excessive stimulants – coffee, mate tea and energetics can lead to a chronic increase in the body’s adrenaline production;
  5. Chronic diseases – Sometimes before expressing obvious symptoms, these diseases can start with persistent fatigue. In this case, a medical evaluation is always important;
  6. Excessive stress – Adrenaline released in chronic stress situations leads to hormonal and neurotransmitters imbalance, which affect a number of metabolic pathways responsible for the ATP production.
