Study suggests ginko and fish oil may help reverse traumatic brain injury
Okay, I've had numerous blows to the head from sports, have been suffering from all the classical symptoms for years and have developed new symptoms including twitching all over my body and tremors. Was finally scene by a nuerologist who prescribed zoloft and sent me on my merry way (no lifestyle advice whatsoever). I was told zoloft was a treatment. but through research It just seems like a band aid. I am now thinking I would be better off trying to reverse the damage and came across this article. (well i guess i cant post links..bullcrap)
"The researchers involved identified 30 veteran football players who showed symptoms of traumatic brain injury from years of contact sports. All patients were supplemented with 55.6 graqms of fish oils per day, a multiple-vitamin, and the following brain enhancing nutrients; Ginkgo and Vinpocetine to enhance blood flow to the brain, ALCAR and Huperzine A to increase the level of acetylcholine (a neurotransmitter necessary for learning and memory), plus NAC and ALA (powerful brain antioxidants) on average for six-months."
Zoloft and Gingko cannot be used at the same time, so I am just asking if anyone on here has tried this regiment and had success. I just don't want to sink money into something that doesn't work. Any advise appreciated. I also reccomend everyone on here watch frontline on pbs. They have just done two shows in regards to the nfl covering up concussion science.
