Nutrition-based healing for concussions is gaining recognition for the vast research supporting not only how to treat a concussion more effectively and naturally, but also because nutrition helps prevent serious results from traumatic brain injuries. This book allows you to learn from someone who was "in the game" as an NFL football player and saw first-hand what traumatic brain injuries (TBI) and concussions do over the course of a lifetime for anyone in almost any sport. You'll learn * Which two women's sports are in the top five for highest risk of concussion. * How your nutritional habits can increase risk for brain damage. * Best practices for recovering from a concussion. * Exact recommendations for nutrients while healthy and after an injury. * Foods to avoid because they slow brain and injury recovery. From field/ice hockey, lacrosse, and soccer as well as basketball to volleyball, reviewing the whole body after an incident as a system rather than just the symptoms from a traumatic injury is much more important than seeing individual signs after an event. Dr. John DeWitt has earned his Doctorate in Chiropractic Medicine and has been studying holistic nutrition. John is a believer in holistic applications of nutrients that can help reduce or prevent concussions when consumed in the proper amounts - even if you or a loved one has already suffered from a TBI, the nutrients you learn in his book can help lessen the symptoms and create a healthier lifestyle for you and your family.
