MOVE OVER PROZAC HYPERBARIC OXYGEN DEMONSTRATES ITS ANTI-DEPRESSANT EFFECTS
If you are suffering from depression and have had a past history of head injury or concussion, then pay close attention to a new study published in the Journal of World Neurosurgery, 2017.
It is very well known that 50% of those people that are afflicted with a traumatic brain injury (TBI) will also suffer from major depression and be put on antidepressants like Prozac. However, this and many other reasons for depression, are clearly related to inflammation inside the brain (neuroinflammation).
With knowledge of this information, along with the understanding of the anti-inflammatory properties of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) in the brain, researchers carried out a study to help us evaluate and see if HBOT could provide relief for TBI victims suffering from depression. The results demonstrates that HBOT was able to significantly diminish TBI-induced depression-like behavior, through its anti-inflammatory Depressants effects in the brain. <view study>
