2917.Head & Spinal Cord. 7)Stroke

A stroke, sometimes called a brain attack, occurs when something blocks blood supply to part of the brain or when a blood vessel in the brain bursts. In either case, parts of the brain become damaged or die. A stroke can cause lasting brain damage, long-term disability, or even death

A stroke, also known as transient ischemic attack or cerebrovascular accident, happens when blood flow to the brain is blocked. This prevents the brain from getting oxygen and nutrients from the blood. Without oxygen and nutrients, brain cells begin to die within minutes. Sudden bleeding in the brain can also cause a stroke if it damages brain cells.

# Symptoms

The signs and symptoms of a stroke often develop quickly. However, they can develop over hours or even days, such as when a transient ischemic attack (TIA) turns into a stroke.

The type of symptoms depends on the type of stroke and the area of the brain that is affected.

Signs of a TIA or stroke may include:

Sudden numbness or weakness, especially on one side of the body

Sudden confusion or trouble speaking or understanding speech

Sudden trouble seeing in one or both eyes

Sudden trouble walking, dizziness, or loss of balance or coordination

Sudden severe headache with no known cause

The FAST test can help you remember what to do if you think someone may be having a stroke:

F—Face: Ask the person to smile. Does one side of the face droop?

A—Arms: Ask the person to raise both arms. Does one arm drift downward?

S—Speech: Ask the person to repeat a simple phrase. Is their speech slurred or strange?

T—Time: If you observe any of these signs, call 9-1-1 right away. Early treatment is essential.

The recommended supplement Stroke are: CoQ10, Platinum Turmeric, Vitamin D3

1. CoQ10

Stroke, is a medical emergency caused by disrupted blood flow to the brain, can lead to severe neurological damage and long-term disabilities. Research suggests that CoQ10 supplementation may have a positive impact on stroke patients by reducing oxidative stress, improving mitochondrial function, and enhancing the overall recovery process. CoQ10 possesses potent antioxidant properties, which help neutralize harmful free radicals and protect brain cells from damage. Additionally, CoQ10 plays a crucial role in energy production within the mitochondria, the powerhouses of cells. By increasing cellular energy production, CoQ10 may aid in the recovery of brain cells affected by the stroke, potentially improving neurological outcomes.

Ubiquinone also contributes to energy production. CoQ10 safeguards cells against oxidative damage. It is also essential for producing ATP, the body's major energy source.

Suggested Use: Take one (1) capsule twice a day as a dietary supplement. For best results, take 20-30 min before a meal or as directed by your healthcare professional.

2. Platinum Turmeric

Traditional treatment options for stroke focus primarily on medication, physical therapy, and rehabilitation. However, recent studies have shown that Platinum Turmeric, a potent herb known for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, can offer additional benefits in the recovery process. Curcumin, the active compound found in turmeric, has been found to possess neuroprotective properties, aiding in the prevention of further brain damage following a stroke. Furthermore, curcumin's anti-inflammatory effects can help reduce post-stroke inflammation, which is a major contributor to secondary brain injury. Additionally, Platinum Turmeric has shown promise in improving cognitive function and memory, which are often compromised in stroke patients. This herb has been found to enhance neuroplasticity, the brain's ability to adapt and reorganize itself to compensate for damaged areas. Moreover, Platinum Turmeric promotes cardiovascular health by lowering cholesterol levels, improving blood circulation, and preventing the formation of blood clots, all of which are crucial for stroke prevention and recovery.

Our Platinum Turmeric blend contains various forms of turmeric, glucosamine, Boswellia extract (frankincense), piperine, and several other highly beneficial natural extracts to keep you at your best. Natural extracts have been used for centuries in Ayurvedic medicine to remedy illnesses. We harness and advance these natural extracts in modern times for optimal bioavailability and effectiveness.

Suggested Use: Take two (2) capsules once a day as a dietary supplement. For best results, take 20-30 min before a meal or as directed by your healthcare professional

3. Vitamin D3

Studies have shown that low levels of vitamin D3 are associated with an increased risk of stroke. Adequate vitamin D3 levels have been linked to a lower incidence of ischemic stroke, the most common type of stroke caused by a blood clot obstructing a blood vessel in the brain. In addition, vitamin D3 deficiency has been associated with poorer outcomes and increased mortality in stroke patients.

Inflammation and oxidative stress play crucial roles in the progression of stroke damage, and vitamin D3 has been shown to modulate these processes. By reducing inflammation and oxidative stress, vitamin D3 may help protect brain cells from further damage and promote recovery following a stroke.
