For those with PD, try taking Astaxanthin[ easily available from Cosco] for 3 months to see if you see improvement.

What is Astaxanthin? I am worried that it may interfere with the many other tablets I have been prescribed. I, myself, would not take an over the counter medicine until I had thoroughly researched it. What suits one person does not necessarily suit another.

you are right to be careful. Astaxanthin is a supplement derived from a form of seaweed, so it's safe to take.

Astaxanthin does thin the blood and is not advisable when taking blood thinners unless dose of medication is adjusted by your doctor.
