Ways To Speed Up Recovery From Brain Fog?


ForestAndTrees

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

 

I've read a lot of the posts related to brain fog, and have found a lot of great info.  However, I haven't found much related to ways in which to speed up recovery from it.  I've listed below what I found: do you know additional ways?

 

Here's what I've found in the other posts:

- Get nutrient levels checked, especially: vitamins B and D, calcium, magnesium.  Take supplements as needed.

- Get seratonin and neurotransmitter levels checked

- Take probiotics

- Ensure there's absolutely no gluten cross-contamination

 

Here are things I've picked up or figured out myself:

- Identify foods other than gluten which set off the "brain fog" response

- Identify foods labelled "gluten-free" which have ingredients you know to be ok for you, but which set off a reaction anyway (my guess is this is due to manufacturing processes - Mary's Gone Crackers is one food which fits this criteria for me).

 

Anything else?  I've been particularly looking for programs designed to aid memory recovery and general brain function recovery from a temporary "cognitive decline", but haven't found anything good yet.  That said, I haven't been able to fandangle my way into a neurologist's office to ask an expert, either.

 

Does anyone know of differences in recommended brain fog recovery aids for non-celiac gluten sensitivity versus celiac disease?

Thank you!!

      Current careteam is still up in the air about my celiac thanks to me googling "celiac specialist" what popped  up was once known as a good name hospital back in the days. I went in for answers for my declining health, it was the autoimmune part that did me in, being a former bus driver.I read that in my medical records so easily downplayed, i refused the gluten challenge! Why the hell would I eat Gluten when im Celiac coming to them for answers when my body is falling apart? Glutenfree since 1994. They did unnecessary colonoscopy KNOWING im glutenfree. A celiac specialist would know that would be pointless to do if not eating gluten and it was done!Im so angery with that hospital for not explaining celiac disease and withholding information, Downplaying my ailments , mental distress,  causing more health issues, ect. All this could have been avoided If medical records were sent, when asked, explained and done properly. Im so angery.I do have the celiac dietitian on here in June and linked her up to my current health care yesterday, fingers crossed hopefully with that, the understanding of celiac is explained it's not just a food allergy will be understood.

      Thank you for sharing your experience, Florence. It’s important to clarify, though, that proteins like zein in corn, panicin in millet, and kafirin in sorghum are not considered gluten and have not been shown to trigger the same autoimmune intestinal damage seen in celiac disease. Some people with celiac disease do report symptoms with certain gluten-free grains, oats, or other foods, but that reflects individual intolerance or sensitivity—not a proven “gluten-mimic” effect that damages the small intestine. Certified gluten-free oats are considered safe for most people with celiac disease, though a small subset may react to avenin. If specific foods consistently cause symptoms for you, it makes sense to avoid them personally, but it’s helpful for readers to know that these foods are still medically classified as gluten-free and generally safe for the broader celiac community.
