The science speaks: Brain fog is a real medical condition + Dubai is the big winner in the luxury property market

The booming markets for luxury properties: Dubai, Madrid, Dublin, Lisbon, LA: Dubai’s property boom could be reaping its benefits soon, with prices of luxury properties in the city forecast to grow by 13.5% in 2023 amid a rising interest by foreign buyers, Bloomberg reports, citing a report by Knight Frank on prime residential price growth for next year. Dubai tops the ranking, with forecast growth more than double that expected for luxury Miami property, which came second with an expected 5% gain, followed by Dublin, Lisbon, Los Angeles at 4%. A relative affordability and an influx of Russia’s wealthy into the city is solidifying the Gulf hub’s growth in terms of high-end property pricing. London is set for a slowdown, with prices expected to fall by 3% next year. Yet central London, where the wealthy usually reside, is expected to grow 3.5% in 2023.

Brain fog is a real health condition: Brain fog is a cognitive dysfunction that’s common in patients with serious illnesses such as long term covid, cancer and other chronic diseases, a neural cell study shows. Patients claim that brain fog is drastically impacting the quality of their life — preventing them from engaging in regular activities such as going out with friends, talking to family, or even doing their jobs. Although brain fog symptoms are becoming more common, it still takes a strong medical team to diagnose it, The Washington Post says. In most cases, people suffering from brain fog will be dismissed as normal and typically learn to live with it.
