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.

Restoring the brain’s mitochondria could slow ageing and end dementia

 Ask your doctor about interventions that could restore your mitochrondria.

Maybe these? Don't follow me, I'm not medically trained. Is your doctor trained in this stuff?

Reversing mitochondrial dysfunction, fatigue and the adverse effects of chemotherapy of metastatic disease by molecular replacement therapy


Supplements, Diet, & Habits to Improve Mitochondrial Health


Why CoQ10 is crucial to mitochondria and overall health benefits



Restoring the brain’s mitochondria could slow ageing and end dementia

The discovery that faulty metabolism is at the root of many brain diseases suggests a surprising transplant could be the way to protect our brains from the ravages of ageing

Protein plaques in the brain may be caused by failing mitochondria

IF YOU own a car, you will have noticed the engine getting less efficient with time. The further you drive it, the more fuel it takes to make the same journey – until, eventually, it becomes so underpowered that it needs a physical push to climb even a gentle hill.

Now, it is emerging that much the same is true of the human brain. Microscopic structures called mitochondria, found in every brain cell, are quite literally the engines of our thoughts and feelings. As we age, they find it harder and harder to produce sufficient energy to power our mental activities. Worse, in a similar way to an old car leaving clouds of smoke in its wake, the cell’s powerhouses start generating unwanted waste products that slowly poison our brains. This means that malfunctioning mitochondria may underlie many of the most devastating brain conditions, including Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, Huntington’s and motor neuron disease.

According to this “grand unified theory” of neurodegeneration, we could prolong our brain’s healthy functioning by recharging our neurons through restoration of their powerhouses. The idea is already inspiring some exciting new therapies for age-related brain conditions, with multiple drug candidates under investigation. Some researchers are even exploring the possibility of transplanting healthy mitochondria into damaged, ageing brains to re-energise them. “If you keep changing the parts of a car, it can last forever,” says Claudio Soto, a neurologist at the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston. “So what happens if we try to do the …
