Rhonda Patrick: The real cause of your brain fog
Peer-Reviewed Research
Key Takeaways
- Reduce visceral fat – Obesity and excess fat, especially visceral fat, drive chronic inflammation linked to brain fog.
- Cut refined sugar – High sugar intake directly contributes to inflammation and brain fog.
- Fix gut health – Address gut permeability (leaky gut) to lower systemic inflammation.
- Minimize microplastics – Avoid plastic food containers/bottles to reduce this inflammatory trigger.
- Prioritize sleep – Inadequate sleep worsens inflammation and cognitive function.
- Move daily – Sedentary behavior exacerbates inflammatory markers.
Bottom Line
Combat brain fog by targeting root causes: lose visceral fat, eliminate refined sugar, heal your gut, avoid microplastics, sleep 7-9 hours, and exercise regularly.
