  • I read recently of a group of Doctors examining the blood taken from dozens of Parkinson patients...tests revealed all had little or no Vit. B in their Systems. I never could take the B's either and have Parkinson's now at 88 yes. Taking loads of brewers nnuitritional yeast flakes everyday and believe this Has definitely slowed things down. Hope this is a help for you all.

    من أفضل الفيديوهات عن مرض باركنسون. لقد تكلمت عن تفاصيل دقيقة منذ بداية المرض وحتى مراحله المتقدمة. جميع ماذكرت من تفاصيل وقعت لوالدي رحمه الله.

    Just Thank You, GREAT INFORMATION AND VIDEO. I have Parkinson's finding information is hard. Your doing a Great Job on this, I'm 62 fighting it. Walking and working is helping.. Happy Easter. THANK YOU and thank you this is GREAT INFORMATION. Thank You.
  • I know somebody who is clinically diagnosed with Parkinson's in 2022. He is 80 years old. He can hardly walk. His disease progressed until he was bedridden for more than six months. Now he can get up from his bed stand up and walk very slowly towards (somebody of course is assisting him holding his arms) the living room where he can sit on his rocking chair. I did some research and found out that no drug is available yet as of December 2022. How can this be possible? Only want to share my experience with this disease. Maybe this can help with your research.

    The illustration at 19:00 is illegible even when blown up to full screen on a nice, crisp 23" monitor. Too bad, eh? Anyone suggest where the same information can be found?
  • I know, Parkinsons, is a progressive neurological condition, but not everyone does. So, explain to the viewer, What this is, And what it means> Not Just, Parkinsons. But dementia, Overall.

    Before diagnosed Parkinson first symptoms: extreme premature ejaculation and 2008 diagnosed overactive thyroid ( Graves' disease ) I believe must be connection with thyroid and Parkinson disease ! Low dopamine : premature ejaculation

    Parkinson’s is in my family my father had it without dementor, his younger brother had the condition but with dementor. I seem to have inherited Parkinson’s . I am reluctant to get diagnosed because i don’t want to start medication for the condition.
