The Energy Blueprint Podcast By Ari Whitten

In this episode, I’m speaking with chronic fatigue expert Dr. Evan Hirsch in his third appearance on the Energy Blueprint Podcast.  In this episode, we talk about how his approach to chronic fatigue and ME/CFS has evolved over the years and how he’s now working with patients who have long COVID. He also describes what he calls “The Toxic 5” and how these are at the root of many fatigue issues. In this podcast, Dr. Hirsch and I discuss: The “Toxic 5” primary reasons Dr. Hirsch believes people struggle with chronic fatigue The crucial importance of addressing toxicity, protocol simplification, and brain retraining in ME/CFS How long-term infections—now, including COVID—contribute to fatigue and their interplay with other root causes The usefulness of testing and how much weight you should (or shouldn’t!) place on certain test results Dr. Hirsch’s experience with ozone therapy, hyperbaric therapy, and IV vitamin C and why his stance has shifted over the years One very surprising (and scary) statistic
