MMA legend Wanderlei Silva is taking supplements to prevent brain damage.
Silva is known for his brawling style and has suffered quite a bit of damage throughout his legendary career. In a recent interview with AG Fight, Silva revealed he is taking precautions to make sure his brain is healthy in the future.
“I’ve been in touch with a Canadian company who was about to launch a product that protects the brain,” Silva said.
“It’s called ‘Brain Armor’. It’s a supplement that contains all the vitamins essential to the brain and it should be taken by every athlete who suffers head trauma.
“I went there and I studied the symptoms a little bit, they had a doctor helping me. I took it a few times and I wanted to bring them to Brazil. I attended a lecture where a doctor listed ten symptoms and I had some of them. But the ones I had could happen to anyone, such as mood swings, memory loss, trouble sleeping. Things that aren’t that big of a deal, but they bug you. In this life, we must be ready for everything.”
