I've been doing some research and people said using nutrition to stimulate the nerve growth factor and neuroplasticity to grow new brain cells in order to substitute dead ones is the best way. Is there a better way? Does the previously mentioned way even work? Is there any way to fully recover from brain damage at all?

No way to really replace lost neurons, but what exactly are you trying to achieve?

>> No.9691463

>>9691457
I'm literally just wondering. I've taken many blows to the head as a child and am scared that I will not have enough intelligence if I want to get a degree to avoid living in poverty. Now that you're telling me there's no way to replace lost cells/neurons, despite what I've researched. I don't know what to believe, and now feel misinformed and mislead.

considering you don't type like a monkey you are probably intelligent enough to succeed in life. also protip: you don't need a degree to not be impoverished

You can recover. Not fully, but 90% maybe.

The younger you are easier is to recover,
but Omega 3 helps people in any age to recover.

Physiotherapy helps to regain body movements.

children can recover from brain damage.
saw a video the other day of some kid who was almost a vegetable from a serious car crash and went to looking and acting pretty normal a few years later.
don't remember what the video was called but it was some feel good video about him and his helper dog

First of all don't be offended, but it doesn't seem to me like you really researched anything, probably just looked some few things up. Second, you need to deal with the fact that you only got what you were born with and if you lose it, you lost it. Third, your "intelligence" or whatever, that you're referring to, is probably just your own personal insecurities that only you can deal with.
But if you wanna talk science, i've been asking myself the very same questions for months now, and i only managed to find that omega-3 fatty acids are good for depression episodes in bipolar disorders, and vit.B complexes are good for remyelination in various diseases where it's compromised, but otherwise no nutrient can "boost" your mental capacities in a way that we'd like them to. And that kinda sucks in a way

Conclusion: rely on nutrition and exercise to maximize neuron development and production. You are surrounded by retards OP. Good thing there are people like us still lurking these fucking desolate boards. God save the queen.

Don't listen to him, damaged brain cells not being replaced is a myth that has been debunked, we now know the brain repairs itself over time through a process known as neurogenesis.

Yes. Poor OP was right and these idiots tried to prove him wrong. Nutrients DO promote Neurogenesis by strengthening the neuro plasticity and Nerve Growth Factor. One of the anons above have already posted multiple links proving this. So it's really only a surprise that these guys don't know it yet.

How young were you? Te brains of young children undergo neurogenesis. It stops when when they get a couple years old, and obviously in adulthood

Neurogenesis stops when you reach adulthood? How high are you there bud? If that were the case, everyone would be much dumber. Check yourself before you wreck yourself bud, ya goof.
