Neurodivergence, what does this term really mean???Thus far 15-30% of the population is considered to be neurodiverse. This equates to approximately 1 in 7 people have a neurodivergent condition.

Fasting is helpful to optimize brain health by protecting your neurons and glial cells. Intermittent fasting improves sleep, which helps to enhance clearance through the brain's lymphatic system.

From a brain injury perspective, fasting can address the effects of the neurometabolic cascade. Oxidative stress, inflammation, energy crisis, mitochondrial dysfunction, and glutamate toxicity can all benefit from intermittent or long-term fasting periods.

Understanding the role the Vagus Nerve plays in your nervous system is essential to treating all brain and neurological conditions, including; anxiety, depression, and overall health.

After a brain injury, whether from physical trauma or environmental toxins, it is common to experience anxiety, depression, loneliness, and isolation.

Choline or Citicoline (CDP-choline) is a nootropic sodium salt. It participates in synthesis of phosphatidylcholine.

It is vital to your brain health to learn to ask for support, help, and time. And it's okay to take space when you need it.

Magnesium is a healing ally for Neurotransmission Disruption after a brain injury.

Autism and brain injuries share several cognitive and physical presentations. These include; gastrointestinal symptoms, learning challenges, seizures, sensory processing disruption, and behavioral symptoms.

Neurotransmission gets altered after a brain injury. The causes for this are multifaceted and include; mitochondrial dysfunction, axonal dysfunction, and changes in ion flux.

Curcumin or Turmeric is a powerful anti-inflammatory herb. It is effective in modulating the pathways involved in oxidative stress, inflammation, cell death, and autophagy.

After a brain injury, your brain can feel like it is on fire. Leading to constant brain fog, headaches, intolerance of light or noise, inability to focus or concentrate, sleep disturbances and much more.

Resveratrol is shown to reduce oxidative stress, excitotoxicity, and reduce inflammation.

Reducing the possibility of long-term symptoms requires stopping secondary influx, including Oxidative Stress. Oxidative stress is basically ‘the straw that breaks the camel’s back’ in TBI recovery.

Neurometabolic Cascade is pathophysiology, or the disordered physiological processes, associated with mild to severe traumatic brain injury.

Phosphatidylserine (PS) is an integral part of a healthy nerve cell membrane and myelin (nerve sheath lining).

Getting a good night’s sleep is an important part of staying healthy. It is key to general brain health and critical when recovering from traumatic brain injury.
