Where It All Started
How We Began
BHERI’s approach to brain health began with a simple but important question: Why were so many service members committing suicide or struggling to recover after brain injuries?
As a retired U.S. Army Colonel, physician, and researcher; Dr. Michael Lewis spent years studying the role of nutrition in brain health. Through an NIH-funded study examining hundreds of active-duty military suicide cases, he identified important patterns involving omega-3 deficiency and other biological factors that may affect brain function and recovery.
Those findings became the foundation for BHERI’s brain health protocol.
Over the past decade, that protocol has continued to evolve through research and real-world patient outcomes. Today, BHERI combines targeted nutritional support, personalized coaching, blood-based testing, hormone optimization when appropriate, and virtual care to create individualized recovery plans for each participant.
Since 2013, BHERI has helped military members, veterans, first responders, athletes, and civilians take meaningful steps toward better brain health while continuing to expand the evidence behind its approach.
Why BHERI?
What Makes Us Different?
Most TBI care is built around symptom management: track what’s wrong, wait for it to improve, return to duty/work/life when symptoms subside. We don’t believe that’s care. That’s monitoring.
Our approach goes to the root. The brain sustained a physical and chemical injury. We address it that way—saturating the brain with the high-quality, absorbable omega-3s it needs to rebuild, while supporting the body through any hormonal disruption that has developed in the months or years since the original injury. Because we operate a telehealth model, we can enroll a patient within 48 hours of referral and ship their protocol the same day.
Every participant is paired with a personally selected coach—not a clinician who treats them, but someone who has lived their experience. Special Operations veterans coach Special Operators. Law enforcement officers coach other officers. That human connection, alongside science, is what our outcomes data consistently points to as a driver of recovery.
Patients track 27 symptom markers from enrollment through completion. Our patients have produced an average 52% reduction in reported symptoms.
