Laboratory Stewardship “Think twice before ordering. Avoid ordering repeat blood tests if values are normal.” #PBMAW2024 #PBMAwarenessWeek

Do you constantly feel tired and achy? It could be asthenia, where energy levels plummet and even the simplest tasks feel like a struggle. Asthenia, which comes from the Greek term meaning “lack of strength,” results from various factors such as stress, nutritional deficiencies and hormonal changes. Nutritional gaps often go unnoticed but wreak havoc on energy levels. Low levels of key nutrients like iron, folic acid and magnesium leave you feeling depleted before the day even begins. Fortunately, a blood test can pinpoint deficiencies, allowing for targeted dietary changes or supplements. Life stages such as menopause or pregnancy bring challenges, exacerbating fatigue with hormonal changes and increased energy demands. Prioritizing lifestyle changes and a balanced, nutrient-rich diet is key to fighting muscle fatigue and disease. However, persistent fatigue could signal underlying problems such as anemia or hypothyroidism, which require immediate medical attention. Don't suffer in silence; consult your doctor to find out the root cause and recover your vitality. With the right support, you can bounce back stronger than ever.
