Hey, everyone. Welcome to Dr. Roushaw Radio. This is Dr. Roushaw today. I'm here with my good

friend, Kevin Ballister, and he's got a very interesting backstory and a book that he has

recently authored called How to Feed a Brain. And him and I have been crossing paths at PaleoFX for a while,

and we finally got a chance to do an interview together. So, Kevin, welcome to the show.

It is such a pleasure. Thank you for bringing me on, Dr. Rocha.

Absolutely. It's absolute pleasure. I mean, you've had such an inspiring story that if people

haven't heard about it, let's just start there because it's really quite inspiring.

So let's jump off there.

Let's just drop up.

All right.

So six and a half years ago, I sustained a severe traumatic brain injury.

I was insulin unconscious, rushed to the hospital, put on life support.

While I was in a coma, I was diagnosed with a diffuse axonal injury.

So like if you go on Google and you type in diffuse axonal injury, you get source after source after source.

That all pretty much say 90% of patients with this injury never wake up from a coma

and those who do most are in a vegetative state so i mean i'm extremely appreciative every day
