Patient Question
Hello Doctor,
I’ve been feeling like I have brain fog lately—trouble concentrating, forgetting small things, and just feeling mentally sluggish. I was wondering if taking an omega-3 supplement might help with this. Is it safe for me to take, and could it actually improve my symptoms?
Answered by Dr. Hikmatullah
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.
Omega-3 supplements, especially DHA and EPA, may support brain health and improve cognitive clarity. However, they should complement, not replace, a balanced diet rich in fatty fish, walnuts, and flaxseeds. If brain fog persists, consult a healthcare professional to rule out underlying causes.
Thanks
