Mental fogginess

What is Mental Fogginess?

Mental fogginess refers to feeling mentally clouded or slowed down. It can make it hard to focus, concentrate, or think clearly. Some common symptoms include:

• Forgetfulness - Having trouble recalling details or remembering things


• Confusion - Feeling disoriented or having difficulty processing information


• Fatigue - Feeling constantly tired or drained of energy


• Lack of motivation - Not feeling like accomplishing tasks or goals

Common Causes

There are a few potential causes behind mental fogginess:

• Stress - High stress depletes brain resources and makes it harder to focus


• Poor sleep - Not getting enough quality sleep prevents the brain from recharging


• Nutrient deficiencies - Lacking key nutrients like B vitamins affects cognition


• Hormonal changes - Shifts in hormones like estrogen can impair memory and concentration

Hormonal causes like menopause or thyroid disorders are a common culprit. The doctors at Optimum Hormone Solutions specialize in using bioidentical hormone therapy to help balance hormones and relieve brain fog symptoms.

• Take targeted supplements like ginseng, ginkgo biloba, or B complex vitamins
