Re: Brain fog - can you clarify stephanie

[Guest guest]

I guess many of us have some form of brain fog (in my case I mean

can't process information in my head, whether its doing tasks, or

even talking in a meaningful conversation or being able to comprehend

atask that is in writing including being able to comprehend a

multipoint bulletin

For me the brain fog has all happened in last 8 months due I believe

(in my 4-5 days on this forum) to the heavy sulphur and other

products my health guru was providing (cilantro-chorella-and anti

fungals(fungal defense and Primal defense) and was eating 5-7 eggs a

day).

Can you be more specific in what type of adrenal support that might

help. I have very low energy and fatigued (wired and tired) also over

past 8 months as it seems that physically my body has just about had

enough. I used isocort for a while and do not remember if this helped

or not.

I was tested for adrenals about 4 years ago and had low adrenal

function and low salivary IGa. I was told the low salivary iga meant

that I would be more susceptible to germs and other pollutants that

entered through my mouth as my resistance was low in my mouth and

throat. This was true back then (4-5 years) as i always had 2-3

strept throats a year that would turn into bronchial infections

Hope I am not becoming a forum monopolizer..but I am an information

junkie and have renewed hope with what I have learned on this forum

in last 4 days. So thank you all
