mental fog and vit. B12

Okay there has been many post I have seen with some of you having the same issue as me, a mental fog suffer :( so wanted to pass along that I started taking the vit. B12 I only take a half in morning and half at night... Mine are horse pills but the are pretty strong. Their hy Nature Made. And then I drink one to two whey protine shakes a day. The fog is pretty much gone :)) I was doing just tbe whey protine by its self and didnt have any luck with just that. The protine shake is cheep too. $10 at Walmart. The mental fog has been my biggest challenge. Being a college student I font have time for it...lol hope this helps. Thanks to whoever suggested this to me, your my hero!!

Agree with T2112, I drink about 4 of those a day too, and I really think it helps with fog (in addition to B vitamins, , Rhodiola, fish oil and 5htp). Think the electrolytes and vitamins help flush your system and replace fluid lost from the runs...which are persistent for me anyway (was a heavy Tram user and on day 33).  My fog has lifted for the most part, but I still have issues with short-term memory and some generalized problem-solving stuff..but that is also coming back slowly!!  I have been taking the Vitamin Water Zero to avoid extra calories..but Kroger also makes a cheaper in-house brand of vitamin water that is good.

What seems to be helping me with the Fog issue is drinking (4) 20oz Vitamin Waters per day. The "Power-C" and "Defence" has vitamins B5, B6, B12 and C.  Maybe it's all in my head - but that's where the fog is. For what it's worth.

nbhope you are spot on. B12 is essential for brain function and your nervous system. Hard to get as a vegetarian without using a supplement. As you said , it's like night and day once you get it flowing in your system. Great point!!!!

The fog will lift soon.  I would throw in a B-6 too.  I take both of them and have since i cleaned up.  Hang in there, you are doing great!
