I can't find anything on people treating PD with black squid ink. Have you seen something on this that you can share?

Hi I have just heard about it recommended strongly from Dr. Jennifer Daniels. Here is a link to an article regarding the benefits.

No but I have tried Yeti Nipple Chips, and nothing happened to my PD symptoms unsurprisingly.

Odd, but I seem to find your response oddly reassuring. Mainly because it seems to be in the ballpark of what might be a rational response to the whole idea in the first place. Along the same lines as most people not realizing that Alice in wonderland was really an LSD trip. Although I also cannot find anything technically erroneous about the abstract offered, just saying the problem would be in delivering the L dopa in the right, well, place... so I wouldn't close the door on the idea, I might seek to develop it in fact.

Marion. I think after championing the Coconut Oil, then the NAC, then the B1, then the broccoli seeds, then the nicotine gum and then grapefruit juice before my meds (oh and CV of course Symprove the massively expensive liquid probiotic), I’ve had enough! In the end, you exercise every day, meditate every day, engage in your community, have a passion for something and eat as much fruit and veg as you can. The rest I leave to providence and a little bit of luck. 😊💪

I have taken 1/2 tsp for several months, but didn’t find any benefit from taking it. Maybe too small a dose and not long enough. It is rich in melanin, enzymes that help produce melanin, and copper which helps produce melanin and ceruloplasmin. I am also trying the root cause protocol which probably supports melanin production.
