Constant brain fog could mean you’re at increased risk for developing dementia.
We are only as functional as our brains are. Poor memory, flagging brain endurance, inability to focus and concentrate, etc. rob us of productivity. Sure, we can blame this on getting older, but age doesn’t determine brain function, neurodegeneration does.
Some of us have susceptible genes — your risk for developing dementia significantly increases if either parent had the the disease. When you add in inflammation, blood sugar spikes, stress, environmental factors, too many sweets, too much alcohol, etc. you now have a recipe for significant neurodegeneration.
If you have brain fog, forget words all the time, have a hard time learning new things, and your memory is declining — these are all red flags that you may be developing dementia.
So what does that mean? It means you are faced with a condition that has no cure and no effective treatment.
Time is essential with dementia risk
Your only option is to lower the risk factors and improve function as early as possible. Time is essential with dementia. If you wait to long to take action you lose opportunity to make significant changes.
So what changes do you need to make and how do you do it? That is the big question.
There is no single magic supplement, medication, or diet that everyone should follow.
You need to learn which areas of your brain are not functioning and which exercises can activate them.
You need to know which mechanisms impact brain degeneration for YOU in terms of diet and lifestyle, and how to apply those changes to your life.
Learn how to save your brain and lower dementia risk in six weeks
I designed a six-week online program that will teach you how to save your brain and lower your dementia risk with exercise, diet, and lifestyle.
Each week you will receive professionally produced online videos and a workbook to learn how to implement easy steps that will make a huge difference for your brain.
Your membership also includes participation in a nurturing Facebook community of members from the first course who are excited to welcome and support you.
Watch my video on red flag symptoms of increased dementia risk
Many people exhibit symptoms that they may not know with an increased risk of dementia: brain fog, trouble finding words, loss of concentration, slipping memory, etc. People think they are normal. They are not.
I put together a 10-minute video that teaches you about these red flag signs and symptoms and the seven stages of dementia.
If you are concerned about your brain health and dementia, then get proactive now! The longer you wait the worse the situation becomes!
If you want to delve deeper into addressing your brain fog, please consider my online course, Save Your Brain: The Six-Week Rescue Plan.
Second time I am contacting you. I signed up for the 6 week program Banish Brain Fog. It is showing as being paid on my credit card statement $247.00 on March 28. I have not received an e-mail confirmation. I wanted to start looking at the workbook. Can you please let me know what’s going on?
Looks like you found your welcome letter and signed on this am. The course starts next week (April 11, 8am) so the workbooks will be available then. Thanks.
Is this course good for practitioners or is it patient targeted? Looking to spread this information to my area! Thanks
Cassie; The course is focused for the patient, but we do have practitioners enrolled who want to understand Dr. Kharrazian’s basic protocols. Dr. Kharrazian plans to offer the course again, but dates are not yet set. We’ll announce them via our newsletter and on the website. To sign up for the newsletter, just go to the [sign-up widget on the blog](https://drknews.com/) and enter your email address.
Thanks for your interest in the course, and we hope you will join us next time around!

Hi! I would like to sign up for your 6 week rescue plan but it says it is closed. Is it possible to still purchase the program?

I had brain surgery 35 years ago and I had always had some thinking problems caused in the left bottom quarter of the brain, (words, numbers, languages etc.I see changes in thinking, (spelling, finding words and expressing sentences, noticing that I am thinking what I want to write words and thoughts but something different get typed…..
I would be very delighted if I can improve my brain and thinking process would be more normal than I am at this point, I do not accept the idea that “this is a normal situation of age, (I am now 71)!
Louann; it’s always worth trying! Our brains are capable of amazing healing and building of neuroplasticity (connections between existing neurons), no matter our age.
I will be trying the Brain Fog coarse. I have multiple chemical sensitivity and there doesn’t seem to be anyone out there dealing with this issue. i have noticeable damage to my brain on MRIs and no one can explain why. I have had Lyme disease, drank water that was seriously chemically contaminated , and lived in homes with mold. Its not surprising that I have issues . I know I have some autoimmune issues but there is no way to pinpoint the actual cause or how to help it, although it is my primary mission. I am so concerned about my brain health. I know its inflamed. I hope this coarse can help me. its even difficult to advocate for myself, its even difficult to read sometimes. I also have to live in a bubble because I can’t be near people who use any fragrances at all. wish me luck, luck to all of you too
Hilda; Sorry to hear you are suffering so much. MCS is very difficult but you are not alone. There are a fair number of members with MCS in the Banish Brain Fog course online community (various past course members, who still interact with the members-only facebook group associated with the course). Perhaps once the course starts, you will be able to network with them via that forum and find support.
Though the course does not address MCS specifically, the protocols Dr. Kharrazian teaches do apply to brain inflammation, so hopefully that will set strong groundwork for your path to better health. You will receive an email just before the course starts, about how to join the facebook group.
While I have your attention, I will say that Dr. Kharrazian is adamant that everyone in the course go through the sequence at their own pace, without rushing; though the information is released on a 6-week plan, that’s just a proposed pace. Many, many members take much more than the 6 weeks. So if you find yourself needing to go slowly, don’t worry; you certainly won’t be alone, and Dr. Kharrazian’s assistants who help answer questions in the facebook group will be present on an ongoing basis after the initial 6 weeks have passed.
If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact us privately via the Contact Us page on this blog. We’ll see you soon in the course!
When will the course be offered again?
Hello Laura;
Thank you for your interest in Dr. Kharrazian’s work. He may offer the course again in 2017, once he knows more of his new research schedule at Harvard (https://drknews.com/dr-kharrazian-appointed-harvard-medical-school-research-fellow/). If you are on the email newsletter list, you will receive notification as soon as the announcement is made. The sign-up widget is in the top of the sidebar on this page. Dr. Kharrazian’s book, “Why Isn’t My Brain Working” is a great way to start with the information. A link to more information is in the sidebar as well.
