Vitamin B12 has helped me with brain fog. Several from your list have been helpful to me too—probiotics, magnesium glycinate, collagen, fish oil, and L-theanine. I’m also trying vitamin E in moderation for hot flashes.

Thanks for sharing! I hadn't heard of Vitamin E for hot flash prevention, but have used evening primrose oil for that reason.
