hey guys in this video we’re going to

talk about brain fog I used to have

brain fog really really bad and yes it

can come from a lack of sleep but most

the time it’s a problem with something

called insulin resistance it’s a

pre-diabetic State where your blood

sugars are a problem you can have either

insulin resistance which means that your

insulin is too high but it’s not

connecting with the brain it won’t go in

there because you’re eating the wrong

foods or it could be another situation

called hypoglycemia which is low blood

sugars which again you’re not getting

enough insulin to the brain so people

think that you have to eat sugar to get

energy in your brain that’s not true

what we have to do is get the sugar out

of the diet and force your body to live

off the other non carbohydrate sources

of fuel like fat fuel or even some

protein fuel okay so to get rid of brain

fog it’s actually really really easy and

I’ll just kind of evaluate what someone

eats and first thing going to do is you

know handle the obvious and cut out all

the sugars that includes honey agave

nectar and I’m going to tell you to

start reading the labels especially the

sugar grams not even the carbohydrate

grams with the sugar grams you’re going

to be shocked to find out how much sugar

is in food it’s like off-the-charts even

plain yogurt has 10 grams of sugar

that’s too much the question is how much

sugar can we have we want to go as close

to zero as possible

okay so we don’t want to add the sugars

all those protein bars it’s sugar

if you take protein and you combine with

sugar you really spike insulin you

really create a situation in brain fog

so those those those protein bars that

you have are creating the brain fog okay

and then hidden sugars that could be

like juice fruits alcohol things like

that so a lot of sugar in that and also

of course the obvious the breads the

pasta cereal crackers biscuits things

like that we want to get that out

because it’s not going to help in fact

oatmeal is also in that category as well

now we also want to have huge salads

because we want the vitamins and

minerals if I don’t

have a huge salad for two days in a row

I don’t feel right in the head like I

need that potassium and that nutrition

to feel clean so the combination is very

important and yes we need healthy

protein but you don’t want to do too

much protein just a little bit just

enough to feel satisfied maybe three to

six ounces big salad and some healthy

fats like maybe a little bit of olive

little brie cheese peanut butter some

fat to allow you to go longer without

eating so very very simple if we can

just have you do these simple things

right here your brain fog should improve

unless you have another health problem

like a sleeping problem a digestive

problem inflammatory conditions some

other issue but typically this is the

first step with most people and it

should work alright see you next video
