The voice of one who knows...is far more powerful than any study or statistic we pontificate about here.

Thank you for taking the time to write!
I used to live my life in a perpetual brain fog. I just thought I was a space cadet and that was it.
I was diagnosed with PCOS at 17 and have gone on to do many things I set my mind to (have a masters in music) but the fog was always there.
What fixed the fog for me was what you always preach-NUTRITION!
I switched my diet to a more Paleo approach, cutting out all refined carbohydrates and getting the majority of my carbs from fruit and vegetables. Basing every meal on a good protein source was another huge shift for me. I've been eating this way for two years and the brain fog is gone. I get so much more done in a day and I can make it through late night rehearsals with a focus I never knew I had. When I slip up and have bread or a cookie, I feel the brain fog come on right away. It's not worth it and that makes it easy for me to continue eating clean!

I have been going through the same brain fog for 2 years now...right after I had a miscarriage. I have been trying just about everything to help the fog and acne. I am really thankful for this blog, knowing that I am not alone! I am on pretty much a low carb diet. I am going to research the Paleo approach and see how I can add it to my diet.
