Clinical Nutrition Program Improves Post-Concussion Symptoms in 23-Year-Old Female

In 2019, a 23-year-old woman with a history of five concussions over seven years, who presented symptoms such as abnormal male pattern hair growth, premenstrual irritability, brain fog, sleep problems, and low energy, was treated with an anti-inflammatory diet and a supplement protocol. This protocol included betaine HCl with pepsin, turmeric, resveratrol, iron, glutathione, sublingual vitamin D, omega 3 fatty acids, an adaptogen formula, a multi-nutrient formula to support glucose utilization, and a multi-nutrient formula to support hepatic biotransformation. After 45 days, the patient reported significant improvement in her premenstrual symptoms, normalized sleep, and improved daytime energy. Her LDH and ferritin levels also normalized. The author suggested further investigation into diet and supplementation for treating chronic post concussion symptoms.
