Have you ever felt that you get tired easily or do not readily recover from fatigue?
This is a symptom of chronic fatigue or tiredness resulting from work in the office or at home. A recent study has found that the accumulation of fatigue and stress lowers immunity. The importance of self-care for fatigue is now drawing more and more public attention.
We get tired when we work too much. When we are tired, our brain and nerve systems that regulate our body lose the agility, making our movements and decisions slower. In other words, we are applying the brake to save ourselves from overwork.
We can recover from normal physical fatigue by taking a rest and sleeping. If we ignore fatigue and continue working, however, the fatigue is accumulated and become chronic. This is the beginning of "overwork." Overwork, when becoming serious, causes mental fatigue and lowers immunity in addition to physical tiredness and may trigger various diseases.
Type 1. Do you feel languid or easily get tired?
Do you look for empty seats on a train because you are too tired to stand? Do you avoid stairs because you are too tired to walk up? Do you have difficulty sleeping although you are tired? If you say yes to any of these questions, you may be worn out physically and mentally because you have accumulated fatigue without knowing it. When you have chronic fatigue, your nerve systems and/or muscles will not work smoothly, making you feel languid and unable to shake off your fatigue even after you had plenty of sleep. You need to reconsider your lifestyle and do something to recover from fatigue as soon as possible.
Type 2. Do you easily catch a cold?
When your physical fatigue continues, you become weaker and less resistant to the infection with viruses and more liable to catch a cold. In the winter season when many people catch a cold, be particularly careful to get plenty of rest and nutrition so that you will regain resistance to viruses.
Type 3. Do you have your usual appetite?
If you are chronically tired, your stomach and liver are less active than before and consequently the mechanism of digestion and absorption does not work smoothly. Coupled with deteriorated actions of autonomic nervous system, you may lose your usual appetite.
Care 1. Do not accumulate fatigue
Relieve your fatigue before a new day starts. That is the basic principle in self-care for physical fatigue. It is important to lead a regular life and have plenty of sleep. We also recommend that you find time to relax both physically and mentally by, for example, taking a long bath.
Care 2. Keep a balance between mind and body
Fatigue may be in your nerves or in your muscles. Your fatigue may be nervous strain or muscle fatigue or both. Keeping a balance between the two, however, is a good way to promote recovery from fatigue. If you are desk-bound, take a moderate amount of exercise. If you do mainly manual labor, do some mental exercises in your leisure time.
Care 3. Supplement nourishment
Make positive efforts to supplement vitamin B-complex, which works on your nerve systems and muscles, and vitamin E, which improves blood circulation. In particular, take a tonic drink containing these vitamins plus various galenicals whenever you cannot shake off fatigue, have no appetite, or have caught a cold.
