Accelerates Recovery from Spinal Cord Injury

Numerous studies also found that Dihexa has the ability to treat one of the most debilitating nervous system injuries – spinal cord injury:
1. By activating HGF, Dihexa may retard progression of spinal cord injury caused by amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). [27]
2. Patients with ALS especially those in advanced disease stage have disruption of the neuronal HGF-c-Met system, suggesting that Dihexa may play a part in preventing cellular degeneration and programmed cell death of spinal motor neurons. [28-29]
3. In an animal model of spinal cord injury, Dihexa administration accelerates functional recovery. [30]
