The quickest way to find out all you need to know about Pd is to view my website - reverseparkinsons.net and contact me and I will tell you everything you need to know and need to do to overcome most of the symptoms. It will cost you nothing and is a viable alternative to medications, with all its side effects.

Not really a decease, more an inconvenience really . Some minor symptoms like being unable to run fast. You can consume various vegetables that have naturally occurring Levadopa and exercise by walking fast and while not a cure it eliminates the symptoms and allows for a normal life. Coconut oil, all the vitamins, and tin foil hats all help

There might be a few articles in the web pages of the Parkinson's organizations that you can get all the latest information from.

Generally people with Parkinson's tend to be a bit winy and complain a lot.

John is a charlatan. Ignore him. Wikipedia is as good a place to start as any.

I do not agree with John completely but he is not a charlatan. He is in his way trying to help. Kinda like a mission from God. I am on the other hand a 18 year old girl living in Cookamunga Botswanna land

JPepper wrote the literary farce ‘Reverse Parkinson’s Disease’ (by walking fast) a couple decades ago yet remains unable to produce a single credible case of the referred PD ‘reversal’. In my trusty picture dictionary, JP’s face is parked right next to the definition of ‘charlatan’.

I always wanted one of those picture dictionaries . When I get out walking with my wheeled walker and music bud in my ears and I keep going to the beat and really push, I can reach levels of speed and distance only imagined and I feel better for it , but reverse PD , it never will.

So there is something to it . Misguided ,exaggerated, probably but I doubt he had enough personal gain from his book to qualify for " Charlatan" that seems a bit severe.

But we each see things through differant glasses and the flavour of the day. Today is rosey and bright and happy and , tomorrow may be grey and dull and painful. It effects my opinion.

That is kinda like asking what is the meaning of life , it is a very big answer and it will differ depending on who is answering. Read what wiki and PD societys and the existing posts here have to say .

PS the meaning of life is faith and love and pain , just thought I would throw that in.
