Is Your Thinking Broken?

“Effortless, sharp, quick, and accurate.”

What if this were an accurate description of your thinking, memory, and concentration?

What Happened to Your Thinking?

Several things can damage your cognitive function:

Here’s a list of the most common problems:

Brain fog: Trouble with attention, memory, and slowed thinking.

Brain Fog often stems from:

• Hormone problems from perimenopause and menopause.
• Thyroid problems.
• Digestive problems (your gut is directly connected to your brain) READ ABOUT THE GUT-BRAIN CONNECTION HERE.
• Allergies, especially food allergies.

Memory: Age often affects memory, although this can be overcome.

Memory problems often stem from:

• Hormones in perimenopause and menopause.
• Nutritional deficiencies, especially essential fatty acids (such as found in many fish, flaxseeds, and almonds), B vitamins, and several other nutrients.
• Food allergies.
• Digestive problems.
• Metals toxicity (mercury, lead, copper, aluminum, etc.).

Concentration: Do you find that your mind wanders, even when you are trying to do a specific task? Have you meant to do something, even started to do it, but found yourself doing something else with no recollection of what happened?

Concentration problems are commonly related to:

• Food allergies.
• Nutritional deficiencies.
• Digestive problems.
• Metals toxicity (mercury, lead, copper, aluminum, etc.).

Cognitive Processing: Do you have difficulty reading, following instructions or get frustrated easily? I see this a lot in children, often diagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD).

Cognitive Processing issues often relate to:

• Food allergies.
• Immune stress made worse by sugar and simple carbohydrates in diet.
• Digestive problems.
• Metals toxicity (mercury, lead, copper, aluminum, etc.).

Thinking Distractions

Being anxious or depressed can cause your thinking to be much less efficient and effective.

Depression tends to slow down thought processes and prevent you from thinking of creative and positive solutions to problems.

• What depression is NOT: chemical imbalances in your brain. This theory, fabricated to sell antidepressant drugs, has been completely disproven (see article here).
• Often depression is caused by having long-term chronic health conditions with no real hope of a solution. If you are convinced that your health will prevent you from reaching your goals, depression can be a natural emotion to feel.

Anxiety can be very distracting. It’s hard to be “sharp as a tack” when you’re freaking out, and often for no good reason.

• Your adrenal glands produce hormones that prevent stress from damaging your body. If the adrenals are fatigued, stress can cause physical reactions and even panic attacks.
• Adrenal glands are stressed by poor sleep, allergies, eating sugar and refined carbs, not eating enough protein, alcohol, junk foods, and life stress.

I frequently help my patients to heal their adrenal glands in my clinic. It’s among the most rewarding activities, as healthier adrenals can change your life!

I have had high levels of success with depression by helping patients to improve their physical health. Hormones, blood sugar, and digestive problems are the top health issues that also could improve depression.

How to Improve Your Thinking

Did you notice that the thinking problems listed earlier in this article are caused by physical health problems?

Memory, concentration, and brain fog are caused by digestive problems, allergies, nutritional deficiencies, toxins and hormone problems. These are problems that have solutions!

You don’t have to live with brain fog, concentration, or memory issues.

Your thinking could become effortless, sharp, quick, and accurate!

I see this every day in my clinic. Probably a third of the success stories patients write mention memory, concentration, brain fog, anxiety, or depression.

Many of these successes are major, life-changing improvements!

Solutions: What to Do?

In most of these cases the body became unable to maintain and heal itself completely.

As time goes on, additional stress and damage build up, and this overwhelming stress became symptoms, like anxiety, depression, brain fog, concentration problems or other “broken” thinking.

Many layers of complex damage prevent these problems from resolving by medical treatment. The only successful resolution of this problem is to address the primary cause: the body’s inability to heal itself.

My treatment programs address just this. I work with patients to reduce stress, supply raw materials, and eliminate barriers to healing. But your body healing itself is what creates 100% of my results.

One Accurate Test is Worth 1,000 “Expert Opinions”

The best solution in many cases of cognitive health problems is:

Get tested to determine what factors are preventing your body from healing.

If you don’t do this, you will be guessing, trying one thing after another to see what might work, researching the internet endlessly, and finding little that actually helps.

A word of caution: Discovering the cause(s) of your health problem is just the first step. You’ll also have to do something effective to assist your body in regaining its ability to heal.

If you have a stubborn/long-term health problem, there is no single treatment, drug, supplement, or diet that will solve it.

Read that last statement again. It’s important.

You Don’t Need a Single Treatment; You Need a Guide and a Program

You need an entire program to work with your body, diet, and lifestyle to restore your life and health. You’ll also need a guide to work with you through the program and ensure you get complete results.

It doesn’t have to be hard. Often a health treatment program takes much less time than you may imagine.

Need More Energy?

Are You Fatigued? Take this mini quiz:

Y / N: “Feel tired or lack energy almost daily.”

Y / N: SEVERE “I’m tired more than once daily.”

Y / N: “I recall at least one recent time when I decided NOT to do some activity because I didn’t have the energy for it.”

Y / N: SEVERE “This happens almost daily.”

Y / N: “I plan around my energy level; I know what times during the day I may not have energy.”

Y / N: “I am living at less than my potential for both activity and enjoyment because I lack the physical or mental energy required.”

Known Causes of Fatigue

Several physical conditions are known to cause fatigue. The good news is that if you have one of these conditions, you’ll have an excellent idea of what is causing your fatigue. Not sure if you have one of these? Read on; there’s more about that.

1: Anemia. This creates a lack of oxygen in your blood. You may get dizzy when you stand up, have brain fog, and get heart palpitations.

2: Diabetes. Blood sugar fluctuations require a great deal of energy, leaving you with little left for your life.

3: Thyroid. The metabolism master hormone gland. It dictates how much energy will be manufactured by every cell in your body. If it is stressed, you may have brain fog, exhaustion, and lack of motivation.

4: Heart Disease. If your heart isn’t pumping blood normally you can be severely fatigued. The tiredness will get worse as you exercise. You may also get shortness of breath and swelling in your arms and legs.

5: Sleep Problems. Insomnia, sleep apnea or just bad sleep habits can build up and lead to chronic tiredness and feeling sleepy.

6: Menopause / Prostate Problems. Having interrupted sleep from frequent urination, night sweats, and other symptoms of low hormone levels can cause severe brain fog, memory problems, lack of energy, and general misery.

7: Depression. Severe stress that goes along with depression can cause hormone and neurotransmitter imbalances. You may have trouble sleeping or wake too early and can’t get back to sleep.

8: Long Covid. This one has a wide variety of symptoms that are not yet understood. Fatigue is a common long-Covid symptom.

Even if you can identify which of these problems is causing your fatigue, there’s still the question of what can you do about this?

Some of these problems have real solutions, but most of them have only long-term drug-based symptom management available.

In most cases, the drugs used for symptoms won’t do much, if anything, for your fatigue or lack of energy.

Unknown Causes of Fatigue

So, what if you’re exhausted but don’t have any of the above health problems? Now what?

You’re in the same situation as people with diabetes, thyroid, menopause, depression, and long Covid. No medical solutions to these health conditions would resolve the fatigue associated with them.

The only possible solution in any of these cases is:

Get tested to determine what factors are preventing your body from healing.

If you don’t do this, you will be guessing, trying one thing after another to see what might work, researching the internet endlessly, and finding little that actually helps.
