Do you ever feel like your brain just will not turn on? Brain fog is one of the most common complaints people bring to the doctor, but most are told it’s just stress, poor sleep, or diet. In this episode, Dr. Kendal Stewart explains why that answer falls short and what is really happening when your brain loses clarity. You’ll learn about the role of inflammation, mitochondria, hormones, genetics, and gut health in brain fog, as well as why some people recover quickly while others stay stuck for years. Dr. Stewart also covers brain fog in long COVID, postpartum changes, and concussions, and why stimulants and symptom-based treatments often make things worse over time.
