There are many reasons for fatigue. One of the most overlooked causes of fatigue is metal burden. Metal exposure from elements present in ubiquitous sources: computers, paints, household products and in the air we breathe and the water we drink - can be responsible for sucking the energy right out of the system. Metals will deposit in tissues, destroy enzymes, hormones, cell receptors etc; and interfere with normal body functioning. Remodelers may not realize that there is more lead exposure from the dust released during the remodeling process than from consumption of paint chips!
Example of a woman who suffered from chronic fatigue for over 10 years was described in the New England Journal of Medicine. Her high blood level of lead led to an inspection in her home and it was discovered that a faulty water heater was leaking lead-filled sludge in her water supply.
