The article is interesting and you did well to post it even if the title is very optimistic. I did a search on the blog but I found very little news about L-Serina and nobody who uses it constantly.

I also found the article very interesting. One of the referenced studies had patients taking 30g of l-serine a day, which seems like s heck of a lot!

Very interesting and glad you posted the link. I am a bit skeptical of L-serine. Previous studies of what makes people live long and healthy lives have pointed to strong family and community ties. On the other hand we have this for ALS:

"One piece of data dangled alluringly from the paper, which was published in a respected ALS journal. The four patients who received the highest doses of L-serine (30 grams per day) saw the progress of their symptoms, as measured on a widely used scale known as ALSFRS-R, slow by 85%. "

Hi Constance..from Glen aka Ole Hoss. Unbelievable the difference in this Web site, from the other, now distant Web site we used to belong too. The folks on this Web site often share success stories, and tips for improvement - which generates hope, and more input from us all.

Even though the attached article was fairly long and technical (which is hard for a Parky, in terms of energy, to stick with) it made a lot of sense, and certainly sounded familiar, in terms of "Big Pharma", trying to seek solutions, while being strangled by their profit picture, and corporate structure. Am thinking medical cannabis to calm the nastier attributes of PD - which certainly works for me, and others. Where's the research on this wonderful plant? Botany(and plant science) has been around for many years; and is still not used to its fullest potential. Slow but exciting progress, huh?

And how's your B1 regimen working out, anyway? Am taking 1 gram/day, based on my, thankfully, very slow rate of regression with PD symptoms....Take care, Constance...

I am always suspicious of the word, "may". It means that you pay your money and you can't get t back if it doesn't work. If you purchased a car and it doesn't work you can take it back and the sane goes for most thinks.

When it comes to medication, not only do you have to take more than you actually want, because it comes pr-packed. It does mot matter if it works or it doesn't.

Am I missing something here?
