Are you suffering from brain fog?

Brain fog is characterized by confusion, forgetfulness, a lack of focus, and mental clarity.

Other symptoms associated with brain fog include irritable behavior and mood swings, sleeping disorders, impaired cognitive function, low motivation & lack of new ideas. Can you relate?

There are 2 major causes of brain fog, not including pain medication in people suffering from fibromyalgia, side effects of chemotherapy, and even a residual long-term effect of Covid-19.  Chronic inflammation & Hormonal Changes & imbalance.

What causes inflammation?

• Obesity & excessive calorie consumption
• Saturated fat & sugar including sugar substitutes
• Oxidative stress by free radicals
• Chronic Stress & lack of restorative sleep
• Increasing age

What causes the hormonal imbalance?

• Exposure to Electromagnetic radiation (mobile phones, tablets, computers, tv)
• Lack of exercise
• Diet based on process foods
• Toxins, pollution, chemicals
• Chronic Stress & lack of restorative sleep

So, how do we get better?... well minimize the causes and we are on our way.
