Does anyone have any suggestions re food + nutrition to support brain healing and recovery from PCS? I'm still figuring out the best regimen for me, but so far my diet includes:
- Fish oil supplements - Multivitamin with above-average quantities of B12, B6 and folic acid - Vitamin D3 (2000 IU/day) - Fair bit of protein (mainly eggs, chicken, fish) - Lots of fruit (oranges, grapefruit, apples, blueberries, raspberries, dried cranberries) - Some vegetables (I should probably eat more), including broccoli, carrots, tomatoes - Green tea (decaf or caffeinated) and rooibos tea w/ honey - Cereal (oatmeal, cheerios, etc) - Multigrain, flax or whole wheat bread - Some daily products: 2% milk, yogourt, cheese, butter - Rice + pasta, occasionally - The occasional serving of nuts (could probably eat more) - Olive oil (for cooking or salads) - A tiny bit of dark chocolate - trying to avoid too much sugar/caffeine - Lots of H2O A random list of things I eat rarely that I could probably add into the mix: leafy greens, mixed nuts, ginger, garlic, grapes, pears... |

I would add a B-50 or B-100 complex vitamin. The B's in a multi vitamin are rarely worthwhile.
