Facts, opinions theories an experiences

It’s easy to get carried away on threads and confuse facts, opinions,theories (personal or otherwise)and experience .

Parkinson’s syndrome is very complex.

Just as the symptoms are multi faceted so are the therapies. They are multi layered and multi disciplined. We need to be tidy communicators

Everything you say is true. BUT! If GDNF repairs the damaged brain cells and helps our brain to produce more dopamine it matters not which type of Pd we suffer from. More dopamine means less symptoms, whatever they are.

Let us all spend some money on finding the best way to naturally produce more GDNF in the brain. No rocket science is needed to do this. I do it by fast walking, but that may not suit everybody. Others claim that Rock Steady Boxing and Dancing and other forms of exercise help them to get better. What can it cost to do a study on this subject? My guess is that it would cost a fraction of what has cost to find a drug that does not even set out to cure the Pd, only to TREAT the symptoms.

Wake up everybody to what is going on here.

Let's put our money into finding the best way to get our brains to produce more GDNF in a natural way!

Would you support Thiamine supplementation if it turns out to be a natural way to increase brain GDNF?

[JohnPepper]

I would support it if I had proof that it works. I do not have any problems with symptoms, other than insomnia so I cannot test it myself.
