In this eye-opening episode of Vital Signs, host Jen Gaudet sits down with Dr. Michael Schwartz, a naturopathic physician known for helping patients decode root causes instead of masking symptoms. Together, they tackle one of the most dismissed — yet most important — health alarms in modern life: fatigue.
If you’re waking up tired after a full night’s sleep, relying on caffeine to function, and still crashing by night, this conversation reframes exhaustion as a systems issue, not a willpower problem. Dr. Schwartz explains how chronic stress can tax the adrenal system and disrupt the body’s energy regulation, creating cycles of cravings, snacking, and blood-sugar crashes that leave people depleted.
