Life Elevated Through Daily Essential Nutrients
PTSD
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that happens after experiencing or witnessing a terrifying event. Symptoms can include flashbacks, nightmares, severe anxiety, and constant thoughts about the event. PTSD can come from one severe event or from repeated exposure to stressful situations.
In PTSD, parts of the brain like the amygdala become overactive, while others, like the hippocampus, become less active and can even shrink.
Awareness and advocacy for better solutions for those with PTSD and the role Daily Essential Nutrients helps with those symptoms is championed by Dr. Bonnie J. Kaplan, Ph.D.
She helped pioneer the work, which is now replicated around the world, showing that the treatment of mood dysregulation with broad-spectrum mineral/vitamin formulas shows far more benefit than the previous 80 years of scientific research on single-nutrient treatments.
Dr. Kaplan was recently interviewed on operationtraumarecovery.org on the role micronutrients can help with PTSD and her book "The Better Brain". Listen here
