The Effect of Branched Chain Amino Acid Supplementation on Stroke-Related Sarcopenia
ConclusionOur results showed a positive effect of BCAA supplementation on sarcopenia after stroke. We also found that nutritional support helps functional improvement during neurological recovery. These results suggest that comprehensive rehabilitation intervention combined with BCAA supplementation could be a helpful option during the critical period of post-stroke neurological recovery.

The role of dietary supplements that modulate one-carbon metabolism on stroke outcome
Purpose of review Ischemic stroke results in disability and mortality worldwide. Nutrition is a modifiable risk factor for stroke. For example, deficiencies in one-carbon metabolism have been linked to increased risk of stroke through elevated levels of homocysteine. Some countries world-wide fortify their diets with folates to prevent neural tube defects, but deficiencies in other one-carbon metabolites, such as vitamin B12 and choline are still present in many populations. The aim of this review is to understand the current evidence on how dietary supplementation by nutrients which modulate one-carbon metabolism impa...
