Thiamine HCL,Vit D, Magnesium,NAC, Omega3, Cycling, Fast walk are The Game Changers.
The past 2 months have been my best days of nearly 3 years dealing with the PD.I amnot sure about the future in how the disease will manifest itself but I am more than happy to be as it is now.
In the past months I have only seen improvements. Almost 0 (ZERO) symptoms.Why almost ? Because I still have PD.

I find how I feel is dictated by how much exercise I'm getting, what I’m eating, how much rest I’m getting and how much water I’m drinking. I also take Vit D, Magnesium,NAC, a few other vitamins and selegiline.
For sure I would keep up the guard as you are doing very well ,as for me there may be little ups and downs because the body's response to drugs or thiamine HCL is not always the same, but after three years of thiamine HCL (vitamin b1) are still at the same levels as you say "an almost normal life".
And I'm not the only one.
And it's not a small thing.
A special thank to you and all the people here on of HU, because you are the best in the world. You never give up, this is the only way to win and we win.
but you can ask him directly by writing to him if you have not already done so.
I was lucky, my datscan gave a more pronounced injury on the one hand and my initial UPDRS of three years ago was around 20/30 points without ever having taken levodopa, now in winter it is around 10 points but I did it myself on line. (on 199 point)
Some small high and low there is always, with the cold and fatigue of the work. I live a very intense life, but stressful (I like it this way or nothing) and with thiamina + ldopa I can still afford it for now.
My wife says that overall they have improved a lot since first in 2014, but you know wifes always have so much admiration in their husbands.
God bless women and wifes all over the world.
Moral: Why believe when you could check it out for yourself? The only thing I ask of you is to make sure you do it on the right terms and at the right time.
Thanks to you all, I began taking Thiamine HCL 6 weeks ago and have realized great improvements to my motor abilities. I’m 3.5 years since my first noticeable PD symptoms, a slight finger tremor and gait issues. I’m NOT using any Pharmaceuticals, but do use Mucuna daily, a variety of vitamin already mentioned by others, plus Moringa and CBD’s.
I’m 56, running a Company with 25 employees, shopping, traveling and enjoying life. I exercise 15-30 minutes most days.
Additionally I’ve learned a great deal about what I call “brain fuel” from a book called, Genius Foods by Max Lugavere. This has had a remarkable effect on my cognitive clarity and energy level.
Hi !! Where do you living ?? Have you considered to visit Dr. Costantini, considered to do the Hinz protocol ? Which Mucuna do you use and it which form ?
How high in % the CBD Oil ?
I company with 25 employees ??? >>>>> how is it with your motor skills or do you mainly have to order, command (>>> "using your voice") ??
If possible, could you please post a copy of your post above to this thread that is a compilation of people who are using thiamine /B1 and their results or lack of results. The idea is that people who are considering using thiamine can get an idea of reasonable expectations on thiamine as well as a potential time line in one easy to follow thread . Thank you!
I purchase from Banyan Botanical, I like their tincture and add it to water when I don’t have time for the powder form in a smoothie. I also use Barlowe’s 40% capsules when on the go. I recommend starting with the allowances allotted by the manufacture listed on the packaging and take it up from there till you find your sweet spot.

From this string it seems reasonable or popular to use: NAC orally 600 mg 2x/d (but IV is better/immediately absorbed),Thiamine as injection or oral? 1.5gm 2 x/ d., 400 mg Mag Cit bedtime , vit D supplement if needed (check labs, I finally hit high threshold after Rx supplements ). MP holds promise as does Hinz protocol for some. Am I missing any major recommendations?
I have no experience of taking PD meds or supplements IV so cannot comment on that. The magnesium I take is an Italian version called Aximagnesio which is really good once taken with Thiamine HCL. Its been recommended by Dr Costantini. The magnesium citrate 400mg at bedtime is self-medicated.
Thx Kia17 and no contact w Dr Con. I want to get “organized” first. I will add that I also take Mannitol as a sweetener and “prebiotic” -sure helps w constipation and clearing a crowded room - if you are not careful w dosage (gas ) !
2. Probiotics are not in my regimine except by food or beverage. Kombucha is a drink I use with mixture of probiotics , with a great degree of variability/brewed by a friend and not regulated. If MP were properly regulated (standardized). I might try it but haven’t needed it for PD Symptoms yet, anyways.
3. A lot of exercise, good nutrition and stress management has helped sustain me at this stage. Selegiline pushed me into tremor reduction, enhanced unilateral gait and arm swing.
4. I Feel it is best to find all the right sources while we are fresh, so that we have our references later, when we need them and can’t quite articulate.
5. I’m so impressed by this group and willingness to share secrets of success, trials, and even error!
Thanks for your input. I think exercise especially those that increase hear rate like: cycling , fast walk work very well in conjunction with the supplements.
I also take 5grs Mannitol 2 times a day and quite happy with the result.
The above post is 2 years old. You have now 5 years post diagnosis. Can you please update us n your current condition and regimen. What is the status of progression or regression
It should be at least a decade after my PD onset.I am doing very well with no progression. What I have learned is that if we commit ourself to a healthy lifestyle we can fight back PD with least complications. Eating well , Exercise, taking enough required minerals and vitamins, mindfulness are the best approach. In one word ; Commitment.
