Keep going when exhausted?
Have you ever been surprised after going for a blood test, that you were severely low in a particular vitamin or nutrient? About 7 years ago, I remember I was a fresh-faced teacher working in Seoul, and for a few months, I was pushing through work shifts absolutely shattered!
I tend to avoid hospitals, but eventually gave in and booked myself extensive blood and urine exams to get me tested for MANY potential deficiencies. Would you believe that when the results came back, the doctor said I was dangerously low in vitamin C, and quite low in vitamin D, too. I quickly got myself to the chemist, and got some vitamin C, and you can guess the marvelous, almost immediate reaction of my body. That experience really helped me learn that pushing through just isn’t enough. I have to listen to my body. Years later, I learned that vitamin C is one of the vitamins that we have to receive externally since our body cannot make it (unlike vitamin D, for example).
