How can i think clearer?!?!?

Question

lately, i've totally felt like my IQ has gone down like... 100 points!! for four/five months now, i've just felt like my ability to process things, mentally, has been really slow and my ability to pick things up quickly has been greatly hindered and i don't know why!! it's really frustrating though because i'm going to be a senior in high school this year and i need to be able to think clearly again to do well!! if it doesn't improve, i don't know what i'm going to do!! does anyone have any suggestions?? any specific drugs or herbs or ANYTHING?! please help!!!!! =[

Answer 1

- Ginkgo Biloba 60mg per day, with meals, improves memory and concentration, promotes clearer thining.

-Omega 3 - 1000mg-2000mg per day, Nordic Naturals brand, increases IQ. Or consume 3 portions of organic oily fish, like sardines or Salmon per week.

-Kefir, drink 1 pint for breakfast, 1 pint prior to bed, this promotes a healthy gut flora and kills candida. look on Don's Kefir making website for more info, or the yahoo kefir group.

- Since this has lingered for '4-5 months', are there any other symptoms?, like mood swings {away from your period}, anxiety, headaches, if so I reccommend a Histamine blood test, high histamine can cause a blank mind

- Candida Overgrowth can cause a foggy mind and problems with memory and concentration, google this to check for matching symptoms.

Hope this helps.

Answer 2

Sounds as if you need a break. Get out and take a walk and get some fresh air in you. Your mind might be clouded with some unresolved issues.

Are you eating fresh? Eat five servings of fresh vegetables or fruits a day and drink water.

Get plenty of sleep but not too much.

Write in a journal and the cobwebs of your mind will untangle and dissipate.

Answer 3

Lack of sleep is the number one thing that causes fuzzy brain problems, the others can be meds for allergies. Get enough sleep, eat omega 3 fatty fish and get some exercise to destress about being a senior and try a vitamin called stresstabs they sell them at Walgreens and they have lots of helpful vitamins to help you energize body and mind. Have a great senior year!
