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.

Smoothies

Michigan is a great place to live to get fruit most of the year. I bought a Nutribullet to create some smoothies. I've been able to get 2 pounds of strawberries for $5 or $6 all year, along with pints of raspberries and blueberries.  I use 1 pound of strawberries, 2 bananas, 1/4 cup of almonds.
I haven't been doing the tomato and green smoothies yet.
Good for these reasons.
Flavonoids are a class of polyphenols. They include the following subclasses:
  • Anthocyanidins—In blueberries, red wine, and strawberries.
  • Flavan-3-ols—In apples, black tea, blueberries, chocolate, and red wine.
  • Flavanones—In citrus fruit and juices and herbal tea.
  • Flavones—In celery, garlic, green peppers, and herbal tea.
  • Flavonols—In blueberries, garlic, kale, onions, spinach, tea, broccoli, red wine, and cherry tomatoes.
  • Proanthocyanidins—In apples, black tea, blueberries, chocolate, mixed nuts, peanuts, red wine, strawberries, and walnuts.
  • Isoflavones—In soy products and peanuts. 
Strawberries and blueberries alone turn into a gel but adding a banana keeps it liquid.
