Do your hands and feet feel particularly cold even from air conditioning, and do you always feel more fatigued than others?

Shall we look together for ways to lift that shadow today?

A pale face in the mirror, hair that keeps falling out for some reason... are you perhaps brushing it off as nothing serious? If you sigh every morning looking at the hair piling up on your pillow and shower floor, you should listen closely to the warning signals sent by your body.
