What a great video!

Thank you 🙏❤️🧠

I played ice hockey growing up for ten years, I've probably had multiple sub concussions, this video really helped me understand that these sub concussions definitely contribute to my brain injuries that I deal with to this day. Awesome job!

[@drmarkheisig]

I'm glad you found this video helpful.

Dr Mark, sport athletes who ingest TECTON (Ketones) before & after practice/games report better recovery & improved cognitive function.👏🌅😎

Sounds like an ad disguised as a comment. But, yeah, there's some cool research on ketones in concussion/PCS.

History concussion not being accounted for is huge!

[@Icerollstar1]

What were the imaging techniques that they used in this study? MRI? Or something like DTI MRI?

[@drmarkheisig]

MRI, fMRI, and DTI were listed in the studies that they reviewed.
