Some of the common causes of fatigue result in a near-term reduction in individual energy level which leads to the onset of fatigue. They are:
- Large temperature variations - excessive temperature can lead to heat exhaustion. Lower temperature, without proper clothing, can lead to hypothermia.
- Poor Diet
- Prolonged or highly intense stress
- Disorganization
- Smoking - A cigarette is the quickest way to reduce oxygen delivery to your tissues. Less oxygen means less energy.
- Ruts
- Overweight - If you are 20 percent over your target weight, you may have found the culprit behind your fatigue.
- Coffee - A cup of java to get you going in the morning may be why you are gone in the afternoon. Coffee triggers an insulin reaction that may leave you with a mild case of low blood sugar at the end of a manic, energy-packed hour. Additionally, the caffeine in coffee can play havoc with your body’s circadian rhythms.
