Chronic head pressure and cognitive issues, I've read it could be anxiety related.
Anxiety is about fear of a danger, so whatever toxins or other stuff... when having health issues, it is felt as a danger by the body, so you can indeed have anxiety, but it is a consequence, not the cause.

Brain fog can be linked to heavy metal or to sensitivity to EMF. Even if the trigger is fin or any drug, because the body changes moved things that should not have been moved in the body, and then our body plays a domino game in our pathways!

I read some posts on this platform re vagus nerve and searched for it online.
Then I read some stuff re neuroimmunologie - link between our (devastated) immunsystem and nerves which communicate. The vagus nerve is a big player re communication between gut (our immu system) and our brain.
9 Nervy Facts About the Vagus Nerve

Here you see how the gutflora affects nerves and behavior.
Ingestion of Lactobacillus strain regulates emotional behavior and central GABA receptor expression in a mouse via the vagus nerve.
Ingestion of Lactobacillus strain regulates emotional behavior and central GABA receptor expression in a mouse via the vagus nerve. - PubMed - NCBI

In my eyes the nerves are the Walkie-Talkie sending information from the gut (other organs) to the brain. If you read the studies re the links between gut and mental disorders or even nerve disorders like MS (check it, there are similar symptoms to ours, or check CIPD), you will understand lots coming from gut issues. And then you need to make the link to the liver (lack of glutathione in most cases) and the reduced detox level. The body is no more able to detoxify all possible things a normal body is doing.
In this case, especially the liver and the gut is targeted. It is even not capable to absorbe or metabolize things correctly.
I don't know a lot about the methylation pathway, but I have understood that the things are linked very much together.

In my eyes, the symptoms show at a higher rate that something is wrong with our gut and detox level.
As long as you haven't identified and solved your gut issues, you cannot go on.
I would check comprehensively on bacterias, parasites, toxins, pathogens and inflammation parameters like interleukins, interferones, calprotektin, ultra high sensitive crop and so on. This is the base in my eyes - and am absolut sure, you will find a lot.

In the USA, you have great tests, check: All Health Tests - Health Tests
Really great test, my gosh. I would do at least 5, very good...

My brain fog is actually what doesn't let me participate here more times. It takes me a lot of time to write something... And this little time is precious. I have to use it for my daily life needs.
There are days that it is so bad that I find myself misspelling, omitting, misplacing words and even switching the name of things and people. I also tend to be very repetitive because of this. Sometimes when I start reading what I've written, only there I realize I am repeating myself over and over again and even using the same words I've used before.

The other day a person asked me what was my age and it took me literally more than 5 seconds to remember it. Then I said it to him and inside my mind I was kind of confirming the math to see if I did it well. I felt so shocked after.

It is the same for me. Usually in the frontal lobe, but also in the top of my head - in the parietal bone, right on the cowlick.

I remember as a kid telling this to my mum a lot, that I felt some pressure on those spots. I would ask her to put some cold water/ice there and massage too. My instincts were very interesting. Probably there is some degree of inflammation. And freezing your brain usually helps with brain fog.

It is interesting that you've mentioned Summer. In the past, when I was having exams at school, my colleagues most of the times would always say to close the windows, because the sun was bothering them. I was immediately like: "Switch places with me, please!". I would always perform better when I had sun shinning on me. Felt warmer also, of course.
Now, I've noticed that light in the form of heat lamps also helps a little sometimes.

It is very weird. I've noticed that even my jaw can start popping like there is some extra bone there all of a sudden. I don't know about muscles though... There could be some tense on them too.

In my opinion, the explanation comes down to the lymphatic system which affects our brain. The lymph nodes expands and then all the fogginess and other symptoms occur. It is normally because you are reacting to something. Usually a food (but the food is usually not the root cause, of course).
It could be also inflammation and mucus plaque.
Minerals imbalance for sure affects our brain performance too.
Also imagine food not being well digested walking down your gut. Surely it is a burden to our bodies to handle it.

And I don't think there is something wrong in your head.
Gut is the main issue.
Have you ever take a dump a felt a relief on those areas?
If not, when I did coffee enemas for the first time, I literally felt popping and relaxation on those places. If you search a little, you will find many people telling they felt a relaxation on their nostrils, jaws, etc while doing coffee enemas. I think here is indeed mucus coming out, not sure though. But surely toxins are being expelled.

Anxiety is about fear of a danger, so whatever toxins or other stuff... when having health issues, it is felt as a danger by the body, so you can indeed have anxiety, but it is a consequence, not the cause.
Exactly! There is that common story that people remove X food or change diet and their depression or other emotional symptoms are gone.
The same may happen if there is something interpreted as foreign by our bodies. Our bodies are in constant stress to detox that.

In my eyes, the symptoms show at a higher rate that something is wrong with our gut and detox level.

Yeah, I think all comes down to all forms of pathogens and toxins. I also have to mention EMFs, blue light, etc that, in the end, affect our gut health too.

I think brain fog at its core is really just ammonia, toxins in the system. This poisons the NMDA receptor in the brain and gives this "brain fog" we experience.

Mine is really bad at times like today where I did a liver flush and I'm constipated- so the flush basically stayed in my system. Basically toxins accumulated after flushing, but inability to move bowels left it all sitting here in my gut and I'm in pretty major brain fog mode right now with tinnitus, light sensitivity as well. Its all toxin pile up leading to this.

LOL I was excited to bust out of work and drive into the city to watch a game with friends (hoops baby!)- but instead I'm going back to my apartment first to do a spring water enema and watch at least the first half now on the couch. It should help get the toxins out leading to brain fog going down.

Would be curious to see if either of you guys have had ammonia looked at in bloodwork. Mine was really high at my worst. It has lowered significantly. But essentially mineral balance, fasting, and fixing our drug caused imbalances should allow our systems to generally improve its ability to deal with these toxins and hence remove brain fog in the long run.

I looked at things to reduce ammonia recently, and found yucca root is supposed to be effective. I tried taking 3 caps per day a couple of weekends ago, and actually felt pretty good overall, however on the second day I started to feel really hypoglycaemic. I googled yucca root and hypoglycaemia and seems it can cause this, so I stopped taking it. Might give it another by cycling smaller amount though.

@tanedout I tried the herbal stuff and aminos (l-ornithine)- honestly I believe that making the system able to handle it rather than using outside helpers is the far more efficient process especially in my case.

For instance- I used a lot of hibiscus and another herbal that seemed to have effects but nothing crazy good or anything. I still drink hibiscus tea almost daily.

I think its really about making your system being able to handle the toxins. Fasting is #!1 for me making my cortisol stronger, enhancing detoxification. Brainfog was at its best the several weeks following my fast. But in the end, getting in balance should do the same thing.

Bruschi, I agree with your explanation in most parts. Liver flush is very good. But the protocol suggests to do also hydrocolon therapy as absolute best option. My practitioner told me that ennemas don't get into the gut and that would be immensely important.
But if you don't get them - have you ever tried MMS ennemas (not supplements cause they can bring Me into the brain)?
If you don't chelate, my personal protocol would be to do a DNA test for the methylation cycle (see attach), analyze the test, go through the attach and buy those supplements which are personalized on a genetic base. Mineral and Vit analysis is good, too.
And I would fast in order to get the autophagy state.
Generally said, I would treat the gut issues while doing the detox protocol. If you don't chelate, it will take you several months or even years to detox to the ground. It is up to you.

If you have brain fog, you will erase that but don't forget to check for gut issues and solve them. No brain fog then. See also studies to vagus nerve, gut issues and neurological problems (mental problems). Last post re brain fog.
