Concussion - Metabolic Prevention/Resilience
No one plans for a concussion; they just happen. In high school and college sports, for every 10 injuries that happen, you can expect 1-3 to be concussions. We also know that many of these athletes - even (maybe especially) elite athletes - have poor metabolic health that may worsen concussion injuries. For example, most NCAA football players: Low Omega-3 Index: Ideally, we want this to be 8-11%. Most NCAA athletes are closer to 4%. Low magnesium: Magnesium is used by over 300 enzymes in the body and is crucial for energy (ATP). Magnesium may also minimize the excitotoxicity seen in concession by competing with calcium and filling NMDA binding sites. Low vitamin D: Vitamin D deficiency may put individuals and higher risk for PCS after a concussion. Vitamin D is not useful AFTER a concussion injury unless paired with progesterone. Thus, we want levels optimal BEFORE an injury. Prevention Recommendations: Magnesium 300-500mg per day Creatine 3-5g per day (to provide an energy reserve) Omega-3s 1-2g per day (or as prescribed based on Omega-3 Index) Vitamin D 5,000IU per day (or as prescribed based on labs) **This protocol was made public for educational purposes ONLY.
