Fatigue

It's been a month and 2 days since I had the mirena IUD removed after having it for over 5 years, nursing a newborn 3 months prior, and of course 9 months spent pregnant. Since the mirena IUD takes away a woman's normal 'cycle', it has been quite a while since my body did its own normal functioning. 6 weeks ago I could hardly stay awake through the day, when awake I was dragging so much, I was miserable. Doing nothing different but removing the mirena has me feeling so much better and I can stay awake all day.

From Dr. Michael Galitzer from Breakthrough answering Suzanne Somer's question: Why is everybody so tired?

MG: I think it's a combination of lifestyle, unhealthy nutrition, toxicity in the environment (or in my case an instrument altering the function of my body), and a lack of understanding of how to get rid of these toxins. The liver, kidney, and lymph systems are the organs of elimination. These organs get rid of the toxins. When they are overwhelmed they put in a call to the hormonal systems: adrenals, thyroid, etc. Hormones aid the liver, kidney, and lymph systems, but eventually the glands that secrete these hormones get tired, and at that point you've got a toxic person with tired hormonal glands, which are the setup for being fatigued and not feeling well. People are on the go all the time.........(people are consuming) too much coffee, and alcohol, too many soft drinks, too much sugar, not enough water. Add to this mix that people are not taking enough vitamins and supplements, and when you put it all together this person does not feel "well".
