Thanks for the replies everyone.

This discussion is very hopelessness inducing and depressing for me. I have suffered concussion plenty of times. I am 31 years old now too. So basically there is no way for me(my brain) to regrow/repair them?

Some stroke sufferers on the internet claim that they have made remarkable recovery by eating a healthy diet. Some say the paleo diet mixed with plenty of fresh, organic veggies and milk from grass-fed cows helps a lot. I know stroke and concussion are completely different things, but I wonder if us humans can induce neurogenesis simply by eating healthy?

There is limited potential for regeneration. However, there is some evidence that upon injury growth factors can, to some degree, stimulate neural progenitor cells.

Even in the cerebrum?

I have read that the brain, in some regions of the brain, like the hippocampus can repair itself and grow new neurons there. But does neurogenesis happen in the cerebrum?

I have been beaten up and bullied my entire life, as a result, I fear I have lost many neurons due to repeated head traumas.
