greenfrog,
Good find.
Dr Julian Bailes has been at the forefront of concussion research for quite some time. He has been ignored by the mainstream medical community until recently. He coined the term "sub-concussive impact."
Omega 3's should be part of the diet of any concussion sufferer. I have never read anything about it being used as a concussion preventative or it making the brain more concussion tolerant.
Two substances have been found to reduce the impact to the brain of concussion. Progesterone has show good promise as an immediate treatment after a brain trauma. metformin, a drug taken by some diabetics, also shows promise as it helps in the post concussion phase.
