Boy with typical "teenage" brain fog - suggestions?

My 15 year son who has always been a good student is struggling since it is as though he can't remember things, get's confused easily etc. I know this is quite typical for this age group but I wondered what supplements might assist him. I am going to put him on a good quality Omega 3-6-9 since he hates fish and I can only get so much flax/walnuts into him on a daily basis. I also read Magnesium could help so I'll get a cal/mag combo (also lactose intolerant and doesn't drink milk). Any other suggestions? I wondered about Ginko Biloba but wasn't sure if it was ok for kids.

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
I see a lot of teenage clients in clinic. It isn't my experience that poor memory and a confused mental state is normal at all. I only see that when they have a disease of some sort (broadly speaking in homoeopathic terms). Are you able to get to see a homoeopath in person?

Yes, I will put in a call to her and see if I can get him in. Thanks!

Just to clarify, 'confusion' might not be as accurate as more of a 'zoned out' type of attitude. He has always been a little like this but certainly the teenage years have accelerated this. His teachers joke that his happy place is more interesting than real life since he enjoys being there a little too much. A very content person but needs to focus more.

Ah yes that I understand :)

I still think that with memory problems it is worth getting it treated - and that distracted or disinterested state can be fixed too!
