The Dr Kumar DiscoveryTrauma, Memory, and the Mind: How PTSD Forms and How It Can Be TreatedPTSD is often misunderstood as a malfunction; in reality, it is a survival system working exactly as intended, just in the wrong environment. In this episode of The Dr. Kumar Discovery, Dr. Ravi Kumar sits down with Dr. Trey Tippens, a clinical psychologist and former Army Sergeant who treated severe trauma cases at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. They reframe PTSD not as a sign of being "broken," but as a learned survival process that keeps individuals alive in dangerous environments but becomes maladaptive back at home. The di...

This interaction can increase ATP production, improve cellular signaling, and restore metabolic function in damaged or e...
