from Dr. Joseph Mercola - Take Control of Your Health · host Dr. Joseph Mercola
Early treatment within the first week after a moderate or severe head injury sharply lowers your long-term risk of Alzheimer's disease and related cognitive decline Neurorehabilitation — including physical, occupational, cognitive and speech therapy — strengthens your brain's ability to reorganize itself, improving recovery and long-term function at any age Acting quickly after a head injury reduces the chances of developing mild cognitive impairment, dementia, and the need for Alzheimer's-related medications in the years that follow DMSO used in the early hours after injury helps blunt inflammation and protect vulnerable brain tissue, supporting a more stable neurological recovery Additional therapies such as flotation therapy, curcumin, photobiomodulation, pulsed electromagnetic field therapy, and CBD-rich formulations offer added support by lowering inflammation, boosting cellular energy and enhancing brain repair
