Ground Breaking Research
What do you think of when someone mentions PTSD? Do you see a soldier not able to remove himself from the horrors of war? Or could you picture that same person performing daring feats, competitive games, and taking risks of another sort?
That transformation is being made possible by changes in the way the medical and psychological fields see PTSD. Let me explain.
After a study examining the brains of postmortem, blast-exposed military veterans and finding 'Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy in Blast-Exposed Military Veterans' (click to read the study); we have a greater understanding of how we can help Veterans heal. Any level of traumatic brain injury can cause pituitary gland damage that results in hormone deficiency. We also know that hormones are a key factor in the way we interpret our world. . From a physiological standpoint, Ranger Road programs increase the brain-derived neurotropic factor (BDNF) which is proving to counteract the effects of brain injuries. Below are studies/articles from leaders in the fields of endocrinology and psychiatry that support our approach.
