Way back when my husband and I were new-ish parents, he read a headline that talked about parents being "bone tired" at the end of the day. For years, we referred to that phrase: "We're BONE TIRED. Parents are all BONE TIRED." (Put a little lilt and emphasis on "bone" and you can hear us in your head now.)As it turns out, Dr. Evan Hirsch would recommend that we stop with those negative thoughts, because they're not going to take us anywhere good. He's an international expert on chronic fatigue (and now long haulers), and this was an interview I was HIGHLY looking forward to. I was right!Prepare to be fascinated by Dr. Hirsch's wisdom on:* The 33 causes of fatigue* How you KNOW you have chronic fatigue (and aren't just bone tired like every other parent out there - and it's way easier than I expected to figure it out!)* Why solving your chronic fatigue may also make you live longer* Why some people become long haulers and others don't (this has fascinated me for a while and I couldn't wait to discuss it!)* Dr. Hirsch's process for helping people reverse chronic fatigue (that more or less translates to long haul)* How you know if 5 jumping jacks is pushing your body too much* A simple "recipe" to raise healthy kids (i.e. what an integrative MD would tell you to do to prevent your kids from getting chronic illnesses and BOOST their real energy -- not the sugar-laden kind -- to help them live happier lives now)* THE most important technique he recommends to everyone, is preventative and restorative (and there are only 4 steps to it and zero cost!!!)I'm going to be thinking about this interview for a long time...can't wait to hear what you think about it.Visit the Kids Cook Real Food eCourse and see how we teach children confidence in the kitchen: https://kidscookrealfood.comFind all the Kids Cook Real Food Healthy Parenting Connector videos at https://youtu.be/GVRq0m-Ehe4
