Methylene blue is an FDA-approved drug whose only established benefit is treating methemoglobinemia. Arsenic is a grade issue: pharmaceutical grade is tested for heavy metals, aquarium and lab grades are not.
Everything you need to know about Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), a form of dysautonomia causing excessive heart rate increase upon standing. Covers symptoms, diagnosis, types, treatments, and the POTS-EDS-MCAS connection.
The brain fog supplements with the strongest evidence are omega-3s, magnesium, vitamin D and vitamin B12, and they help most when a blood test shows a deficiency. Here is what the research supports, what is still early, and what to skip.
EDS and POTS overlap because lax connective tissue lets blood vessels stretch instead of tightening when you stand, and studies report that 50 to 80% of people with hypermobile EDS meet criteria for POTS or related dysautonomia. Here is how to get evaluated and which treatments address both.
Brain fog is usually caused by neuroinflammation driven by gut dysfunction, thyroid disease, blood sugar swings, poor sleep, nutrient gaps, mold, infection, hormones or medications. Learn the 12 root causes, the tests that find them and who treats each one.
ME/CFS treatment centers on pacing within your energy envelope and treating symptoms such as poor sleep, pain and orthostatic intolerance, since no FDA-approved drug treats the disease. Graded exercise therapy is no longer recommended by NICE or the CDC.
Menopause fatigue comes from overlapping hormonal, sleep, thyroid, and mitochondrial changes. Here is what drives it and what the evidence says about treatment.
A fibromyalgia flare-up is a stretch of days to weeks when pain, fatigue, brain fog and poor sleep rise above baseline, most often after stress, overexertion, poor sleep, weather changes or infection. Pacing, gentle movement, heat and protected sleep help most flares settle.
ME/CFS, At a Glance What it is: A chronic, complex neuroimmune condition characterized by profound fatigue not relieved by rest, post-exertional malaise (PEM), cognitive dysfunction, and autonomic disturbance What it is NOT: Depression, deconditioning, laziness, or “just being tired”, these misconceptions have caused decades of harm Prevalence: Estimated 836,000-2.5 million Americans; 75% are women; average…
Adrenal fatigue is not a recognized diagnosis, so insomnia blamed on it is treated like any chronic insomnia: CBT-I first, plus testing for sleep apnea, thyroid disease, iron deficiency and depression.
NAD+ therapy eases brain fog by restoring mitochondrial energy production, calming neuroinflammation, and supporting DNA repair, with IV infusions acting fastest and oral NMN or NR supporting maintenance.
Long COVID brain fog is slow thinking, poor memory and mental fatigue lasting more than 12 weeks after COVID-19. Most people improve within 6 to 18 months, and pacing, cognitive rehabilitation and HBOT have the best evidence.
