The mission of The BART Foundation is to promote better outcomes for brain injury survivors.

The mission of The BART Foundation is to promote better outcomes for brain injury survivors by answering three questions – which alternative therapies are likely to work, where can they be found, and how can they be afforded

While branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) therapy is not one of the treatments the BART Foundation currently advocates for, it is a topic we have been monitoring for those with TBI/ABI. While this research study did not involve human subjects, the outcomes indicate that further studies with humans are warranted. If you have questions, please reach out. We'll always try to help.

Trying to explain TBI/ABI to a friend, family member, or co-worker can be challenging. We know because we've been in your shoes. Each year, over 1.7 million Americans experience a traumatic brain injury, and over 800,000 Americans suffer a stroke (a leading cause of non-traumatic acquired brain injury). This article was co-written by members of the BART Advisory Board and can be a helpful resource. Feel free to share it! And remember, you are not alone in the search for healing. Don't hesitate to reach out to us with questions. We try to help as best we can.

Understanding brain injuries: What is an acquired brain injury? An acquired brain injury (ABI) is an injury to the brain that occurs after birth.

Football season is about to start, and while it is one of the most popular sports in the US, it's also known for its punishing effects on players.

Have questions? Don't hesitate to reach out!

The BART Foundation's News Archives is our central "library" of all research articles, updates, and news items that we share on Facebook. Started in December 2020, it now has 120+ entries! If you're looking for an article we've shared, you can find it on this page. And if you need a little help, just let us know; we're happy to point you in the right direction.

Periodically, we will post news articles about emerging alternative therapies. This should not be taken as an endorsement of these therapies, but merely presented as a news service to our constituents.

There is ample scientific evidence that HBOT helps injured brains to heal, but how long after injury must HBOT begin before it’s too late to help? Now, for the first time, there is hard proof that adults who suffered pediatric TBIs can still see cognitive gains even decades post-injury. This is a big deal as it shows it's never too late for treatment. If you have questions about HBOT, don’t hesitate to reach out to us. We always try our best to provide answers in understandable terms, making accurate, practical information about alternative therapies accessible to survivors, caregivers, and health professionals.
