Overpressure refers to the sudden, intense increase in air pressure that occurs immediately after an explosion.
When an explosive detonates, it creates:

1. A blast wave: a rapidly expanding front of high-pressure air.
2. A negative pressure phase: the vacuum-like suction that follows as air rushes back toward the explosion site.

This sudden change, from normal atmospheric pressure to extreme overpressure, then back to underpressure happens within milliseconds, and it’s this wave of compressed air that interacts with the human body and brain.

Cortisol is the body’s main stress hormone, produced by the adrenal glands under control of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis — a system that is often disrupted after a TBI.

After a TBI, the pituitary gland or hypothalamus may be damaged, leading to neuroendocrine dysfunction and unstable cortisol production.
This can cause periods of excessive cortisol release (hypercortisolism) or insufficient cortisol (hypocortisolism/adrenal insufficiency).

Memory impairment after TBI can be subtle or severe, depending on the injury’s location and intensity. For combat veterans, these challenges can affect reintegration, relationships, and overall quality of life — making cognitive rehabilitation and ongoing support essential.

Veterans Day

If you’ve had a traumatic brain injury (TBI), drinking alcohol can seriously slow or impair your recovery.

What happens?
Slows brain healing: Alcohol interferes with neuroplasticity (your brain’s ability to rewire and heal).

Increases seizure risk: Drinking can trigger or worsen post-traumatic seizures.

Worsens sleep & mood: Alcohol disrupts deep sleep and can amplify depression or irritability.

Deepens cognitive issues: Memory, focus, and balance problems can worsen under the influence.

Adds brain stress: Alcohol increases inflammation and oxidative stress in already-injured tissue.

Raises re-injury risk: Impaired balance and judgment mean higher odds of another head injury.

If you’re healing from a TBI, alcohol isn’t your friend. Your brain needs time, oxygen, and rest, not toxins. Speak to your healthcare professional about safe ways to reduce or stop the use of alcohol.

Sleep = Recovery
If you’re not sleeping, your body can’t heal, recharge, or fight inflammation.

Restful sleep isn’t a luxury, it’s essential for TBI recovery.

The good news: there are strategies, resources, and treatments that can help you get the rest your brain and body need. Healing starts with better sleep.

A community is especially important for veterans living with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and/or post-traumatic stress (PTS) because these conditions can deeply affect mental health, physical health, and day-to-day functioning.

Some resources and organizations for veterans to consider for peer support:

“He made the step to reach out to BTF. After seeing one of their functional medicine providers, adding supplements and a few prescriptions to regulate his hormones and changing his diet, he is the man I remember before combat.”

These are stories that we hear everyday. Brain Treatment is proud to stand by our heroes after their battles overseas cease and the battles at home begin. Thank you to all of our supporters who allow us the opportunity to give back to American combat veterans.

Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as signaling molecules in the body, and research is growing on their role in neuroprotection and repair after traumatic brain injury (TBI).

For veterans, who face unique complications from blast injuries, repeated concussions, or combined TBI and PTS, peptides are being investigated for several potential benefits.
