The Real Problem May Be Your Intestines: A Vicious Cycle in Forgetfulness
Brain fog is seen more often, particularly in patients with intestinal dysfunction accompanied by candida albicans (yeast overgrowth), and in those with gluten sensitivity/intolerance. In patients with candida albicans in particular, brain fog is frequently accompanied by chronic fatigue, weight gain, and intense cravings and desire for sweets. Gluten has also been shown to cause brain fog not only in celiac patients, but also in patients with gluten intolerance.
A high rate of celiac disease has also been observed in patients with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Accordingly, it has been found that after a change in diet, there is an improvement in the subjects' behavior and performance.
For this reason, the approach for all brain fog patients should be as follows: correct the disrupted gut flora, fight candida albicans if present, and also first determine whether the person has a sensitivity, intolerance or allergy to certain foods, and adjust their diet accordingly…
But do you also react to nuts, dairy products, or certain types of fruit? Here, you should closely monitor whether your concentration drops after eating certain products. An intolerance to lectins can also trigger brain fog.
Glutamate and artificial sweeteners such as aspartame or sucralose also have a negative effect on the brain in some people.
For patients with candida albicans (yeast fungus), effective treatment — a correct and balanced diet, neural therapy, and the use of the right nutritional supplement products — is very important.
DEHYDRATION DUE TO NOT DRINKING ENOUGH WATER
When the history of patients experiencing brain fog is examined a bit more closely, it is observed that they don't drink much water. It's worth noting that dehydration is among the significant causes of brain fog. Lack of water causes typical concentration problems and can lead to significant consequences even in a mild state of deficiency.
Did you know that 75% of our brain's total volume is made up of water?
This water level must always be maintained for your brain to function normally and carry out its functions properly. A study conducted at the University of Barcelona in Spain revealed that even a 2% state of dehydration in humans significantly reduces cognitive abilities.
During exertion or stress, people tend to regularly forget to drink water. The water we normally need is 40 ml per kilogram of body weight.
