My Opinion
I´ve seen a handful of testimonies that hydrogen therapy has cleared someone brain fog, and if it has great. But I think in today’s world with so much chemical toxicity and stress, I´m getting to more of an opinion that hydrogen therapy on its own is getting less likely to clear someone brain fog on its own. Yes, there are scientific studies showing that mice, improve their brain function completing a maze with hydrogen water. Yet with a human with brain fog, I think you need more than just Hydrogen Therapy.
In this blog I will share with you what else I think is needed to help clear brain fog and to get your noggin working properly.
Alcohol / Coffee
Most people cannot function without coffee, yet if you can detox it out of your body, you will sleep better and think more clearly as coffee reduces the blood flow to your brain up to 52%, causes anxiety and high blood pressure and only works as a stimulate, by burning out your adrenals, so in short it is a fake high, with a high cost.
Alcohol is fake way to relax the body, and numbs down your emotion, it is a pure poison, which will reduce the quality of your sleep, and the quality of you processing your emotions, basically keeping you more stuck in life.
Both of these substances I avoid, maybe I will have a cocktail once or twice a year and maybe I will have 3 coffees a year, but it is getting less and less.
Processed Foods & Sugar Spikes
Our general processed foods, fruit and Veg are more and more filled with chemicals that could possibly aid with dumbing down our brain. I eat as much possible fresh local organic foods and if I´m going to have any sugar to have it at the end of the meal or I take a spoon of apple cider vinegar in a glass of water before.
Ashwagandha & Curcumin
Curcumin is well known from reducing inflammation and ashwagandha is well known for balancing your energy levels. So, I make a tea most days with half a teaspoon of Ashwagandha, Curcumin and pinch of cardamon and sweeten with monk sugar, or coconut sugar. This drink will act a opposite to alcohol and coffee.
Release The Muscle Tension
There is a web of fascia that lays beneath your skin and wraps around every muscle and every part of your body, when you have an injury, get over stressed, or have repetitive strain injury this can get locked in the fascia , and then this locked stuck fascia pulls and tightens up that part of the body, and then if it is not dealt with in a short period of time, then that pain compensation can travel to another part of the body. So unlocking fascia is key and, in this video, it shows you how to release head tension.
Hydrogen Therapy
I know when I’m working at my desk, right now, I’m breathing in HHO at 400ml per minute. I know what the science says about H2 helping with brain function, and I can confirm form my own experience that when I breath in H2 while I´m working my brain is a bit sharper and works better. The skill comes in working out the right dose that will help someone with stubborn brain fog that has been there for over a year. My understanding is the more stubborn the brain fog is to shift the high the dose of H2 is needed, from what I understand from Doctors in China and Japan, is using a dose between 700ml up to 3000ml for 40 to 60 minutes, shows a positive result in 80% of people in less symptoms.
Peppermint Oil
The best essential oil, I’ve come across in helping to release fascia and to bring a freshness to the head, or any part of the body, is peppermint oil. Which you can dilute in a carrier oil and simple mix in a few drops and rub into your scalp.
Supplements
For looking after your brain, I would recommend looking into huperzine A, Ginko and omega 3 Oil.
Grounding
I’m a big believer in walking a few minutes each day on grass, this instantly changes how your blood looks under a microscope.
Conclusion
Even without hydrogen therapy, I´m sure if you have brain fog the tips above will help, and hydrogen therapy gives that extra help.
I would love to know if you try any of the tips above if it helps you.
To your health and happiness
