The 2020 Marine Pilot Study: Brain Rescue 3
The 2020 Marine Pilot Study, conducted by the Millennium Health Centers, explored the effects of Brain Rescue 3 (BR3)—a nutraceutical blend targeting neuroinflammation—on active-duty Marines suffering from subconcussive and concussive brain injuries. This open-label, 90-day study aimed to assess the intervention's impact on psychological, physiological, and physical functioning. Key ingredients in BR3 included neurosteroids, antioxidants (e.g., N-acetylcysteine, CoQ10), and anti-inflammatory compounds (e.g., DHA, quercetin). Participants self-reported improvements using subjective measures, indicating enhanced cognitive function, reduced migraines, better sleep, and emotional stability. These findings suggest that nutraceuticals addressing inflammation and oxidative stress can complement TBI recovery efforts.
