Brain fog and how to deal with it.

 Hello

This was taken from Morning Live today at 0915am on BBC 1.

So what is brain and and the reasons behind it?

Sluggish memory

Concentration issue

Forgetfulness

Anxiety

Trouble remembering names

Can be mild to very serious

It could be due to thyroid issues.

ME/CFS, yes, we got a mention.

Vitamin deficiencies

Lack of sleep

Menopause

Having had a baby

What helps to reduce it?

If you are stressed, try to reduce it.

Limit alcohol

Stop smoking

Have a healthy diet

Do strictly fitness, each day. (This is one minutes worth of fitness, you do each day only if you are up to it though)

It is at 0955 on Morning Live, on BBC 1 Monday to Friday.

Check to see if any medication you are on, is causing it.

Do crosswords, puzzles etc.

Only do these things, if able to, and consult your doctor.

I hope this helps.
