I have really bad brain fog in the morning. I think I have some adrenal issues, which could be causing it. Any recommendations?

Yes would definitely eliminate sugar, gluten, diary and soy. In addition get evaluated for heavy metal toxicity. And most important be sure you are getting adequate deep and REM sleep. The brian's lymphatic system(glymphatics) detoxifies the brain while we are sleeping.
Yes, getting some aerobic exercise in the am, whether that's running or even dancing & doing jumping jacks, followed by a shower, can help clear brain fog. As far as what to avoid, sugar has already been mentioned, but I'd add gluten to the list of things that can contribute a lot to brain fog. With that, comes alcohol since so many alcohols are wheat-based. Also, all alcohols have sugars, causing a spike in insulin which impairs brain function over time.

Energy work and movement.
Also watching what you are filling your body and mind with. If you are investing toxins whether through food and drink or through relationships, it will have an effect. Going to the source of the issue can expand the results you are looking for!
