Most people think of long COVID as something new, but for many, it’s simply a different name for an old, complex pattern: chronic fatigue. In this episode of ReInvent Healthcare, Dr. Ritamarie sits down with Dr. Evan Hirsch (The EnergyMD) to discuss the clinical connections between long COVID, chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS), and the deeper biochemical imbalances practitioners must understand to reverse them.

This is not a surface-level conversation. Dr. Hirsch breaks down the toxic five, his four-step recovery system, and why most testing methods fail to reveal the real root causes. You’ll learn what to look for in clients presenting with post-COVID fatigue, why overtraining can backfire, and how to help clients finally move the needle.
