I have never seen a multi-vitamin worth taking. They are better than nothing but are based on RDA. The injured brain needs the B-6, B-12, and folic acid etc. to help it heal and purge the toxins from injury and stress.

Meat protein is important as it has the amino acids needed by the brain. A ultra-low fat diet can be counter-productive. Children can be left neurologically deficient from low fat diets. The brain needs some animal fats.

Whole grains are important due to the natural vitamins in the outer layer. We enjoy a seven grain whole grain bread.

It is rare than any of us with persistent PCS have days in bed. Instead, we have days of struggling to focus, endure noise or visual stimulation, days with no memory, etc.

It is the memory and cognitive struggles that can be lasting and very difficult to resolve.
