Lecture on Combating Brain Fog

Introduction

• Brain fog is a condition characterized by confusion, forgetfulness, and lack of focus.
• It impacts daily life making simple tasks challenging.
• Understanding root causes and implementing holistic techniques can alleviate symptoms and restore mental clarity.

Root Causes of Brain Fog

1. Autoimmune Issues
   • Diseases where the immune system attacks itself (e.g., Hashimoto's, thyroiditis, lupus).
   • Mold exposure can significantly impact life and cognitive health.
   • Mitochondrial dysfunction affects energy production, leading to fatigue and cognitive impairments.
2. Poor Diet
   • Nutritional deficiencies from processed foods lacking essential nutrients.
   • Gut health impacts vitamin and mineral absorption.
3. Chronic Stress
   • Disrupts natural rhythms, changes cognitive functions, and leads to hormonal imbalances and inflammation.

Nutritional Strategies

1. Mediterranean Diet
   • Reduces inflammation and supports brain health.
   • Includes leafy greens, superfoods, and fatty fish low in heavy metals.
2. Supplements
   • Omega-3 and omega-7 for cognitive health.
   • Wild berries (blueberries, raspberries, strawberries) for antioxidants.
   • Ensure nuts and seeds are compatible with individual dietary needs.
3. Hydration
   • Essential for brain function; aim for 1 ounce of water for every 2 pounds of body weight.
   • Check urine color for hydration levels.
4. Fasting
   • Reduces inflammation and increases autophagy (natural cell clearing process).
   • Different fasting windows for men and women; professional supervision recommended.
