"Chronic fatigue is also related to the adrenals. Have you looked into that? "
Yes, but what is the cause and what is the effect? I take kicorice root, DHEA(25 mg a day) and increased my salt intake to boost my adrenals. I guess I could increase my DHEA intake, although some urge caution with doses over 25 mg a day.
What do you mean by cause and effect? The cause and effect of the adrenals? You could easily find that out with research. There are several reasons. Toxicity build up. Stress. Both mental and physical. Nutritional deficiencies etc. Plenty of symptoms that result from adrenal fatigue. You could also look those up. Have you gotten a blood test to make sure you have a DHEA deficiency? I'm sure DHEA is good but it's nothing I've read (the main thing anyway) to help boost adrenals. From what I've read, b-vitamins help the adrenals. Certain other vitamins. An adrenal glandular supplement... If you're a vegetarian, I've read that it's a lot harder (almost impossible) to recover from adrenal fatigue. Because of the diet lacking in the best sources of protein. And restricting diets are no good for the adrenals. And recovery can take quite a while (years even) depending on the cause.
I think wnat many think is a copper overload is really a zinc deficiency.
Yes. Zinc deficiency can certainly lead to copper overload. So can adrenal fatigue and burnout. Mercury toxicity can cause this to. And in effect, cause copper overload as well.
It sounds like you're not doing too too much honestly to help your body recover. It seems like you're just cherry picking certain supplements rather than looking at everything as a whole. If mercury toxicity is connected to copper overload, than perhaps you should look into that. Maybe try a new diet for a couple months. From what you've said, it seems like you're still having issues. For me, that would be a sign to try something new. Any way you could see a holistic doctor for all this?
