Jake Paul is apparently suffering from brain damage after competing in the sport of boxing. The former Vine star claims to have suffered damage from playing football and now things have gotten worse in boxing.
He does have a plan to treat it and it sounds like something Joe Rogan would be proud of. Jake Paul explains his treatment.
“I got my brain scanned right before I started boxing and the doctor told me there’s lack of blood flow from the concussions I had playing football to certain areas on my brain,” Jake Paul said via Mirror Fighting. “One of them, I believe, is the frontal lobe, which is partial for memory and so on. After my first year of boxing, I went back and it was worse. I was always thrown in there with people who were way better than me until I started to slowly get to their level.”
“You’re doing something that is detrimental to your long-term health,” he added. “I notice it in conversations with my girlfriend or friends, not remembering something that I should be able to remember that happened a couple days ago. Sometimes in my speech, there’s like every 100th or 200th word I’ll mess up or like slur, which I didn’t do that before.”
“I’ve talked to tons and tons of people about it, and there’s new research and science to combat against it, things like psychedelics and toad (5-Meo-DMT). It sounds crazy, but it can actually increase the neural activity in your brain and open up new pathways, I’ve experimented with that and it’s definitely helped.”
Jake Paul is finding out about one of the unfortunate side effects of boxing. Although the money is good, long-term health is another story.
