Omega 3 Oils as treatment for TBI, concussions and other brain injuries with Dr Michael Lewis

Dr. Lewis, a West Point graduate who served in the US Army for 31 years, shares his experiences treating wounded soldiers as well as civilians with TBI, concussion, stroke and other anoxic injuries. He explains how Omega 3 oils help the brain recover. Dr. Lewis also discusses diet, supplements and current studies. Dr. Lewis advocates for Omega-3’s use, under a physician’s supervision, as treatment for a range of acquired brain injuries. Omega 3 oil supplementation is one of the safe alternative therapies that we at the BART Foundation believe may result in better outcomes for brain injury survivors.
With alternative therapies, as with mainstream approaches, there is always an element of chance, luck, and randomness. What works brilliantly for one survivor, may not work for another, and we may never know why. All one can do is try one’s best, and hope to be lucky.

I was significantly suffering from a TBI and my Nutritionist suggested Omegas to help recover. Within a week, I went from cognitively performing below average in many tests to performing at the top 95% in the same tests. It was like someone turned the light on in my brain again. The Doctors at the Ft. Bragg Post concussion center were shocked at the results. Never considering a holistic method in diet could have such a profound impact. I wish your findings were shared and utilized amongst the military community!

How much did you take? I find people recommending fish oil but never say how much to be effective. I have found very little help from it. Thank you

[@pattygreen9125]

Thank you for helpful information. My drs never talked to me about TBI. Everything I have learned is from research.

This guy is a fish oil salesman! 😂 Seriously though, thank you for this, and your work. I have recently started supplementing fish oil for general health, but am glad to hear that it may help my TBI. We must completely change the way our healthcare system works, with many dangerous medications being pushed instead of safe and inexpensive treatments. 🙏

Does fish oil treat pesticide brain injury and immunodeficiency? I have 3/4 low gamma globulins, too. A lot of stress too. My husband is dead due to taking Avodart by Glaxo Smith Kline. Causes loneliness and stress.

What about high amounts causing AFIB?

Humana used to regularly consume animal brains, a very high source of omega threes. Icky but true!
