Summary
- Cognitive problems like memory loss, poor focus, and brain fog are rising sharply among younger adults, nearly doubling between 2013 and 2023
- Lifestyle and metabolic factors — such as poor diet, stress, sleep disruption, and exposure to seed oils and environmental toxins — are likely fueling this decline in brain health
- Chronic conditions like high blood pressure and diabetes dramatically increase the risk of cognitive disability by damaging blood vessels, reducing brain oxygen, and driving inflammation
- Improving gut health, restoring metabolic energy, and managing daily stress through light exposure, breathing, and balanced nutrition are key to protecting your brain
- Your brain's decline is not inevitable; by eliminating root causes and building daily recovery habits, you can restore focus, memory, and mental clarity at any age
