Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.

What this blog is for:

My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.

Study: Daily Multivitamins Don’t Cut Risk Of Heart Attack Or Stroke

So unless you are taking them for another reason, you can reduce the cost of your pee. But note that these people were already healthy. So ask your doctor for their opinion.

Daily multivitamins don’t cut the risk of heart attack or stroke, and a new study finds that many take them as a “quick fix” crutch.
The study followed more than 14,500 men for over a decade, and looked at whether taking the common multivitamin – Pfizer Inc.’s Centrum Silver – can prevent disease in comparison to taking a placebo or a fake vitamin. In addition to cancer and heart disease, researchers also looked at whether multivitamin use affected cognitive decline and eye disease.
More than half of Americans take a vitamin or supplement on a regular basis, and about a third take a daily multivitamin.
“Many people take vitamins as a crutch,” Howard Sesso, one of the authors of the study and an associate professor at Harvard Medical School and Brigham and Women’s Hospital, told the Wall Street Journal. “There’s no substitute for a heart-healthy diet and exercise.”
However, there was a small reduction in cancer risk, according to results from the study released in October.
“One thing worth noting is these physicians were quite healthy,” Dr. Sesso added. “A lot of them exercised and most had pretty good diets”—which make it harder to measure the added benefit of a multivitamin.

They didn't link to the specific study so have your doctor find that.
