JP 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’. Nothing Doidge says supports the prospect of such a dreamy outcome either.

he is hosted everywhere he travels by gratefull people who have used his method with success!! Time to grow a few dendrites yourself and admit the truth !! His method is helping people worldwide. you should be applauding this, not critizising it. one wonders wat your motivation is. (aside from envy i suppose)

Great, you have evidence of people who have successfully reversed their Parkinson’s disease then?!?

Or... is this just another synaptic misfire from yet another gullible mind?

The following is from a review of Doidges book.

“Next under the lens is John Pepper, a South African businessman with Parkinson's disease. He reversed his tremor, rigidity and slowness with exercise and a mental strategy that breaks down walking into its composite parts then rejoins them with conscious effort. Doidge reports Pepper's symptoms in perplexing detail before revealing several doctors claimed he had a less severe variant of Parkinson's, not the real deal.

Diagnostic quibbles aside, I was baffled that Doidge would devote nearly 70 pages to this single controversial case. Pepper's dedication is inspiring but his is an atypical sample that hardly extrapolates to the wider Parkinson's community…..

The internet is a double edged sword and John Pepper's continued success and presence is proof of the failings of the internet. Exercise in any form is better than no exercise, but fast walking is NOT a cure.
