In this opening monologue, David Brimacombe describes the common experience of starting a highly‑promoted “miracle” supplement—such as magnesium, creatine, choline, or lion’s mane—while recovering from post‑concussion syndrome. He explains the hopeful anticipation of a quick boost in energy and mental clarity, the disappointment when fatigue and brain fog persist, and the psychological toll of feeling different, hopeless, and slipping into a deeper rut. The segment sets up the central question of why these popular supplements often fail to deliver the expected recovery benefits.
