Do you guys have experience of what they call brain fog?
https://www.healthline.com/health/brain-fog

It's a situation where your mental clarity is not what it is used to be and you're not as sharp as before.

I'm noticing this for myself where I find it hard to remember certain names, words, phrases that I know is just at the back of my head. I just know that my mental clarity is not working at 100%.

For example, was talking with some friends on some gory movies, and I remember very vividly the scene where this person was sawing his own hand to escape. Unfortunately I couldn't remember the title of the movie.(It's SAW after goggling it)
Another example, wanting to send an email to one of my colleague, but I couldn't remember her name despite just talking to her just last week.

Anyone of you experiencing this ? What did you do to overcome this?

Sleeping well yes - 7 hours a day
Exercise - only 1-2 times a week, if I miss one week I'll compensate more the following week.
Stress - Yes , but I have been facing the same thing for the past 10 years, so I sort of grown immune to it already.

Being forgetful is common, but in my case I could tell that my mind isn't as sharp as what it use to be.

I'm pretty sure I don't have mild stroke, I'm still going to gym and all and I still can write and smile.

Even if I go to the doctor, what do you think they can do and do they even know such condition exist.

What would I say ? I'm feeling forgetful and less sharp lately? They'll probably do not know how to diagnose the issue.

You know what , you might be right. Been doing low carb a few months ago.

But I wonder if it is the low carb that is the culprit or the low calorie. Been eating economy rice without the rice and probably reduce my carb intake by 80%.

I think I do have enough sleep. Maybe on and off will have less sleep than usual but usually compensated in the weekend.

Just an update on this , one of my teeth which was crowned and root canal failed but because of root canal , no longer feel the pain. So the root was rotten internally for years. Once removed , i notice brain fog getting cleared.
My hypothesis is that i was constantly getting low grade infection from the toxins which affected my brain.
Wish I knew about this earlier.
