"The FDA came out and said supplements neither cure nor aid a head injury."

The FDA has never researched supplements. They rely on private parties to research supplements. Since no such research has been done, they feel they can say that. Plus, the FDA is STRONGLY influenced by Big Pharma. As I say, The FDA is the best government administration government can buy.

" I think you got better sleep because you were healing. In all my prior brain injuries I did nothing supportive and got better. and feeding all the nutrients in the world to a severely damaged brain injury patient probably wouldn't make much of a difference. "

Supplements may not reverse brain damage but they do allow a damaged brain to perform at an optimum level for that damaged brain. They also assist with any healing that may be possible. Just as a cast does not cause healing of a broken bone. The cast just creates a condition where the body's healing mechanism can perform best.

"I think it makes us feel to good to think we have some control. I have a closet full of supplements from seven years and never felt a difference. "

I don't feel the difference as much as my wife observes a difference. She can tell when I have missed a few days of my regimen. Now, she never lets me go more than a day without taking my regimen.

Supplements are not a 'take this and you will feel better tomorrow'. Often, the changes are very slow over an extended period of time.

In my experience, the improvements come slow but the relapses onset faster.
