My last (yesterday) blood test showed unusual levels of iron (490 ng/ml).
There was a study a few years ago by Dr Hirsch (France) about excess iron in the brain and Parkinson's. People talked about iron chelation, but I did not find much more.
Any clue ?
I don't know about increasing ferritin levels, but I know it can be decreased by donating blood...
I have PD (10 yr since diagnosis)
Over the years I have been borderline anemic, take a few iron pills
no connection here
I feel my Pd was caused by either the 2 iron transfers I had or the low iron that made them necessary. I have no idea why else I’d get Pd really.
If you review Ferritin and Parkinsons’ , there are conflicting reports. It does seem that there’s is some relationship between Iron and Parkinsons’.
Reducing Ferritin levels can be achieved quite readily with chelating agents, such as (Deferiprone) and I can see no reason not to do this,however I suggest seeing a Haematologist first .
I have the same problem and will keep you informed.
Thank you Condor39, for the second time ! ( healthunlocked.com/parkinso... )
In this video, the researcher says that ferritin is a safe storage protein (when the iron is bound to ferritin it does not participate in redox reactions):
Donate blood to reduce Iron to normal levels. Curcumin is a good iron chelator.

Studies in exercise and PD
PD link allergic rhinitis like “hay-fever” and histamine
