JJ Virgin was a well-known fitness and nutrition expert and author of several books when her son was hit by a car and severely injured. The doctors told her to prepare for the worst; they didn’t expect him to make it through the night. But, Grant lived. And JJ’s insistence on making sure he had access to both conventional and functional medical care is the reason why. She became an expert on the essential interventions for severe traumatic brain injury and insisted on their use during his recovery. In this podcast, the four-time New York Times bestselling author tells the story of her son’s accident and recovery, talks about her newest book, Miracle Mindset, and shares amazing clinical pearls on treating traumatic brain injury with functional interventions. In this podcast, you’ll hear JJ’s list of essential interventions for severe traumatic brain injury, including CBD oil with omega 3’s Essential oils, lavender combination (find details at www.grantvirgin.com) Autologous stem cell therapy (stem cell revolution) Progesterone/hormone balancing Prayer Diet Very high dose omega-3 fatty acids (up to 20 grams) Amino acids (higher dose branched-chain amino acids to prevent catabolism) Hyperbaric oxygen therapy The power of mindset Avoiding hospital food
