    My Brain Was Inflamed, So I Prescribed Myself a Protocol

    The most valuable protocol I’ve ever built… wasn’t for our clients. It was for myself." "" "A few months ago, I got a wake-up call: my brain was inflamed." "Not metaphorically, biologically." "I was sleeping well, eating clean, and “doing all the right things”… but my diagnostics told a different story." "" "So I did what I’d do for any client: I prescribed myself a protocol and have had it delivered at Expand Labs, our Expand Health Cape Town European sister clinic. " "Only this time, the patient was me." "" "Here’s the 6-part stack that has started to make me much better and to improve my biomarkers:" "1️⃣ HBOT + PEMF cycles – alternating oxygen saturation and cellular recharge." "2️⃣ Neurofeedback – retraining focus patterns disrupted by inflammation." "3️⃣ TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation) – boosting neuroplasticity." "4️⃣ Phosphatidylcholine IVs – repairing cell membranes." "5️⃣ Alpha-lipoic acid IVs – taming oxidative stress." "6️⃣ Mindfulness + breathwork – calming the nervous system so healing sticks." "" "Two weeks in, my focus is sharper, my recovery faster, and my mood more stable than it’s been in years." "It’s a reminder that longevity isn’t just about lifespan, it’s about brainspan." "" "What’s one thing you’ve done lately to take care of your brain?" "" "#Longevity #BrainHealth #Biohacking #ExpandHealth #Neuroplasticity
