In eating disorder and hypothalamic amenorrhea recovery, feeling tired and fatigued is a common experience. It's frustrating and can make the recovery process feel even more challenging. But what are the root causes of recovery fatigue? In this episode of Holistic Health Radio, we'll explore the various factors that contribute to feeling tired during recovery, and what you can do to support your body through this process.

One of the key factors contributing to recovery fatigue is nutrient deficiencies. When we're not eating enough or not getting enough of the right nutrients, our bodies struggle to keep up with the demands of recovery. In this episode, we'll discuss the specific macro and micro nutrients that are important for recovery and why they're essential for restoring energy levels.

Another factor that can contribute to fatigue during recovery is hormone imbalances. Disordered eating and hypothalamic amenorrhea can wreak havoc on our hormones, leaving us feeling tired, irritable, and out of balance. We'll explore the connection between hormones and energy levels, and what you can do to support your hormonal health during recovery.

In addition to nutrient deficiencies and hormonal imbalances, there are many other factors that can contribute to recovery fatigue, including stress, lack of sleep, and overexercising. We'll discuss how these factors impact energy levels and share practical tips for managing them during recovery.
