Max kicks brain fog with Reviv

Max was in my first test group in early 2023 and managed to get rid of pretty severe brain fog in a little over a month.

A little while ago I got to catchup with a friend, Max, who was in my first test group.

And so I asked him to share in his own words what he was going through and how Reviv helped him.

Here is the interview in case you want to watch the whole thing.

And below is a summary of the things we discussed.

A bit about Max

Max is in his early 30’s and is an American living in New York and working as a product manager in an AI tech startup.

But he lived in Bangkok for a couple years prior to that leaving the city only in late 2023 to go to New York.

And so Max had met Ken in early 2023 through the networking site, www.lunchclub.com. A little while after which they decided to try starting a small startup together.

The startup ended up not working out, but Max got to know about these dental biomechanics through his frequent interactions with Ken. And soon after decided to try them.

Max’s health issues

Max was having pretty severe sleep issues for a couple of years in which he’d wake up in the middle of the night and felt a number of issues like inflammation.

This was impacting his cognitive abilities and his ability to do things like math. He concluded that this was pretty severe brain fog.

He then tried going to a number of doctors who all seemed to feel that it was stress-induced.

So based on their recommendations he tried things like meditation, valium, etc.

But it wasn’t helping. And he started feeling more desperate.

What if he had to live to the rest of his life this way?

He mentioned… “Some days it was so bad I felt like he had alzheimer’s.”

Max was in my first test group that began in early 2023

Max would see Ken doing some of his jaw stretches during their video calls and would ask about them. And would learn more about the process in this incremental way.

Also he found Ken’s confidence that this stuff would help him inspiring and almost strange. As Ken would say things like… “Max… I literally guarantee this shit gets rid of your brain fog.” Hahaha

Finally Max decided it was worth a try.

He purchased a rubber mouthguard that Ken had recommended, which is basically the same as the Reviv One (note that the official ‘Reviv One’ was only launched in mid-2024).

Max’s Reviv Process

In the first week it hurt his gums and jaw and he didnt notice any improvements at first. There were sores like the one in the pic above.

But he stuck with it.

During these early days Max was wearing the appliance almost 24-7 and was chewing on it a bit.

At some point he got a major pain on the right side of his face. And couldn’t lie on that side of the face for days. It made him very concerned.

But on the bright side, the cognitive function started improving. So he decided to stick with it.

And as more time went on he just kept on improving and the pain went away.

Finally after a few months like this Max decided he felt normal. His brain fog was gone and it felt like his progress seem to have plateaud.

Ken had mentioned that he’d continue to improve a bit if he stuck with it, but Max decided he’d achieved his goals and would take a break from wearing the appliance.

Where Max is today

Now it is a year later. Max has moved on with his life and barely even thinks about this stuff.

Cognitive function is still well above what Max considers the 90% mark (ie. 90% of ‘perfect’).

If some light brain fog returns it goes away very quickly when Max puts the appliance back in for a couple of days.

Max never had to walk very far into the dark tunnel that most folks go through for many years when this type of brain fog occurs.
