This was posted when it was new 7 months ago by Farooqji healthunlocked.com/cure-par... and by PixelPaul healthunlocked.com/cure-par...

But there are a lot of new people that have joined since then (myself included) and even if you don't agree with Dr Miscley on everything, she covers A LOT of topics and covers them well.

Farooqji did a good job of summing up some highlights in their post.

One thing that really grabbed me was at the end when she talked about PD Dementia: It's not like Alzheimer's. I guess with PD Dementia you can still function and socialize, you just might not be able to draw a clock or fold a piece of paper in two. That's comforting.

She also mentioned untreated Celiac Disease can mimic PD down to the balance issues (I'm not diagnosed with PD, I have RBD, so I grab onto anything that can get me off this ride and I am definitely gluten intolerant).

She also talks a lot about dairy (bad) and has an interesting review of supplements.

Oh and she REALLY does not think much of probiotics and says the probiotics we are usually adding are the ones we already make too much of.

Thank you for mentioning the part about untreated Celiac Disease as it spurred me to action to make a post which you can find here: healthunlocked.com/cure-par...

I am also new here, and am not diagnosed (have non-motor symptoms & family history). I've used the diet protocol (see my post) with success for irritable bowel type issues, but was doing so well that I eventually slacked off. That was a couple of years ago. I must refresh my memory of the details and get back on track. :) Anyway, I think the links in that post may be of interest to you.

I sorta remember the post from 7 months ago. She sez no meat or cheese or bread! But we forget what we want so I stopped all meat and cheese but continued eating bread.

Now you have me dreaming about a roast beef and cheese sandwich. But I am off bread and dairy. I will have the occasional beef (but no pork as pigs are smart).

Not what you're looking for?
