Dr. David Dodick is a Professor of Neurology and the Director of the Headache Program and the Sports Neurology and Concussion Program at the Mayo Clinic. He's also the Chair of the American Migraine Foundation and the American Academy of Neurology Sports Concussion Conference. Dr. Dodick has recently developed a supplement that provides nutritional support for the brain and is particularly beneficial for athletes who participate in contact sports and are at risk of incurring a brain injury. The supplement is available in two forms, SynaQuell, which provides daily support to the brain, and SynaQuell Plus, which should be taken after developing symptoms of an injury. We talk about how athletes who play contact sports are likely to experience repetitive subconcussive head impacts during a season. Plus, Dr. Dodick explains how people who have suffered a traumatic brain injury are at an increased risk of developing adverse health outcomes, including coronary artery disease, psychosis, anxiety, depression, and epilepsy. He recommends taking a proactive approach to brain health that concentrates on optimizing cognition and helps protect against neurological impairment, dysfunction, and disease.Support the show (https://www.coachjoedi.com/joe-recommends )
