Dr. Gordon, a leading expert in neuroendocrinology, shares his journey into understanding the intricate relationship between brain injuries and hormonal changes, driven by his own personal experiences.
A key takeaway from this episode is Dr. Gordon's simple yet impactful statement: "When the brain gets hurt, it can cause a lot of problems with how the rest of the body works." He delves into how this inflammation affects mental health, cognition, and overall well-being, offering valuable insights into why some people develop symptoms while others do not.
You will benefit from Dr. Gordon’s expertise on building biological resilience, the role of lifestyle factors in mitigating the effects of TBI, and practical strategies for managing neuroinflammation.
