Episode 7: Chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), American football, and the lithium cure: An interview with Jim Scarborough

  • サマリー

  • Chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) is an illness that occurs with concussions and subconcussive impacts, leading to depression, manic symptoms, anger, aggression, suicidality, headaches, cognitive impairment, and eventually dementia.  I have proposed that lithium can treat or prevent CTE. In this episode, I explain why and interview Jim Scarborough, who describes his family's struggle with CTE in their son and his decision to begin lithium treatment.
