*Stroke* happens when blood flow to a part of your brain is cut off. Without the oxygen in blood, brain cells start dying within minutes.

*Warning Signs*

Sometimes a stroke happens gradually, but you're likely to have one or more sudden symptoms like these:

• Numbness or weakness in your face, arm, or leg, especially on one side
• Confusion or trouble understanding other people
• Difficulty speaking
• Trouble seeing with one or both eyes
• Problems walking or staying balanced or coordinated
• Dizziness
• Severe headache that comes on for no reason

If you have these symptoms, see your *doctor*, even if you're not sure you're having a stroke.

Stroke is caused by damage to the brain from interruption of its blood supply. Brain cell death and free radical damage are results from strokes. Free radicals cause oxidative stress which leads to inflammation.

It happens when fatty deposits in arteries break off and travel to the brain or when poor blood flow from an irregular heartbeat forms a blood clot.

Enhancing mitochondrial energy production is key to re-establishing function in these cells.
