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.

Evidence of CV benefits of Mediterranean diet growing

So fucking what? It is not specific enough to reliably work. But great conscience laundering for those promoting this.  So your doctor can absolve themselves of responsibility by just saying those two words. 'Mediterranean diet'.  Until you get actual SPECIFICS, you are screwed.

Evidence of CV benefits of Mediterranean diet growing


After the holidays, often as part of a New Year’s resolution, it is common for people to think about changing to a healthier diet. One option is the Mediterranean diet, which was recently named by U.S. News & World Report as the top overall diet, the best diet for healthy eating, the best plant-based diet, the best diet for diabetes and the easiest diet to follow.
Much evidence emerged in 2018 regarding the CV benefits of the Mediterranean diet. Below are some of those findings covered by Cardiology Today.

Proper nutrition can change course of CHD, other diseases
BOSTON — Nutrition is a powerful source of cardioprotective intervention and physicians must be better about incorporating nutritional education into their treatment plans, according to a presentation at the Cardiometabolic Health Congress.
Diet intervention has been shown to reduce risk for cardiometabolic death, with multiple studies indicating that a Mediterranean diet (more fruit, vegetables, fish, nuts, olive oil and whole grains)(How non specific can you get and still say this with a straight face?) can drastically improve cardiometabolic health, according to Stephen Devries, MD, FACC, executive director of the Gaples Institute for Integrative Cardiology and associate professor at Northwestern University School of Medicine.
