Re: The Brain's Immune System
Dr. Kharrazian's :"Why Isn't my brain working?" book is 587 pages long. It has interesting concepts.
He recommends improving cognitive function by stabilizing blood sugar, increasing oxygen to the brain, and providing mental stimulation.
We all should be avoid sugar and processed foods anyway because we are cancer survivors (I love my sweets!).
The exercise benefits are currently being studied for cancer survivors, and we see the additional benefits to our cognitive function with increased oxygen.
Intestinal distress? Try a gluten free diet. Also if the brain connection to the gut has been affected we need to restimulate the vagus nerve. Do this by gargling water before you swallow, singing at the top of your voice, or stimulating your gag reflex.
