Brain fog is something many people with Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS) experience.

In this episode, we explore what brain fog is, how it affects thinking, memory, and what research reveals about its links to distress and quality of life.

Aaron Goodman's guests are researchers Tara Packham, PhD, and PhD candidate Ronessa Dass from McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.

It's always great to hear from listeners!
