“ They started testing the effects of berberine and l-dopa/dopamine-producing gut bacteria in a mouse model of Parkinson’s. They discovered that treating animals with berberine, or transplanting E. faecalis and E. faecium into their gastrointestinal tract could improve both their behavior and brain function. However, these positive effects were stronger when both methods were combined.”
This is very odd bc E. faecium is a cause of infections. How can it be positive for PD.
Berberine looks compelling though.
