Can you tell me what is the best ways to avoid body fatigue even with lack of sleep and no exercise?

Dr. Stephen Southard answered

Specializes in Internal Medicine

If you can't: Optimize your sleep and exercise, at least make sure you are eating well and taking measures to minimize your stress as best as possible. And remember, exercise comes in all forms of activity, even if that means just walking more or taking the stairs.
