Our Naturopaths know treatment of Fatigue

Our Naturopathic Approach:

We usually begin our fatigue work up with comprehensive blood and salivary testing.

Common Blood Work: Iron, B12, TSH/FreeT3/Free T4 & Thyroid Antibodies

Common Saliva Testing: AM Cortisol, DHEA, Testosterone, Estradiol and Progesterone

For Challenging Cases: Advanced Nutritional Testing, Infectious Testing (EBV, HHV-6 & Candida) and toxicity testing (Heavy Metals) & Organic Acid Testing (OAT) may be conducted.

Our Naturopaths use Immunosciences lab from Los Angeles to measure viral antibody levels as well as a stool microbiology culture to measure yeast levels at our Edmonton clinic.

We use urinary heavy metal testing to assess primarily for mercury accumulation.

Magnesium, Iodine, Iron and B12 are top nutrients we screen for related to fatigue.

However, deficiencies of other minerals or vitamins can also cause low energy.

Management options:

Our Naturopaths often begin with nutritional and herbal options for fatigue treatment.

Commonly we use Adrenal glandular extracts to treat hypoadrenalism or "adrenal fatigue" as well as iodine based herbal formulas for thyroid treatment especially if an iodine deficiency is found.

More difficult cases may require use of Bio-identical or Injectable Options*.

Desiccated Thyroid, DHEA and Hydrocortisone are all potential Bio-Identical options for Fatigue*.

For infectious cases of fatigue we usually start with oral antimicrobials. Viral infections are often treated with Baikal Skullcap, Lomatium, Olive Leaf, Artemesinin, Lysine and Vitamin C.

Your TruMed Naturopath may refer you for prescription anti-virals as well or may also recommend IV Vitamin C.

Yeast infections are also typically treated orally with grapefruit seed extract and capryllic acid.

If a metal toxicity is found, your Naturopath may recommend oral chelation using agents in addition to supplementary minerals.

IV vitamin therapy is also a frequently rapid and effective option for stubborn cases of fatigue.

Fatigue is the most common use of IV Therapy at our Edmonton office.

*We may refer to prescribing professionals if Bio-identical options are needed.

IV Therapy for Fatigue

IV Therapy is an aggressive way to rapidly treat fatigue.

Our Naturopathic doctors are extremely experienced with IV Therapy administration.

We've given thousands of IV Therapy treatments at our Edmonton clinic.

We offer many different IV formulas to treat different severities and causes of fatigue.

Please visit our IV therapy page for more information.

At our clinic we have seen excellent results treating fatigue and improving energy and mood with IV vitamins.

For fatigue we usually give all the B Vitamins and Magnesium to replete common nutrients involved in energy production - most commonly our Naturopaths administer what we call the "Myers Cocktail IV "

We can often further customize your IV Therapy treatment based on results found on micronutrient testing.

In conditions where mitochondrial function is compromised, our Naturopaths also offer IV NAD for treatment of Fatigue as well as IV PolyMVA.

Doses of 250 - 500mg are utilized to rev-up mitochondrial energy production.

IV NAD can also be given in conjunction with IV Vitamins.

Our Naturopathic doctors are experienced with IV NAD+ and it's proven to be extremely useful in stubborn cases of fatigue, especially in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibromyalgia.
