Every body with Parkinsons and caregivers should read this !!

A very good understandable explanation of what is being used to help Parkys and status of treatment

"“There are currently no treatments able to delay or arrest the progression of Parkinson’s disease. Thus, affected persons face a future of progressive disability and early death. If NAD-replenishment proves to have neuroprotective, disease-modifying action in Parkinson’s disease, this would revolutionize the field, offering for the first time, hope for an improved prognosis and perhaps, even a cure,” said Tzoulis.

“The impact of such a therapy would be profound for patients, science, and society as a whole.”"

Anyone familiar with this compound?

"oral intake of nicotinamide riboside (NR) enhances NAD-metabolism in individuals with Parkinson’s disease, and offers encouraging insight into its therapeutic potential"

“There are currently no treatments able to delay or arrest the progression of Parkinson’s disease…." No Mr Tzoulis, only partly correct. While there may not be a cure for Parkinson's just yet, but delay yes. There are al ready ways to slow down PD and its symptoms. From embracing a healthy lifestyle with delicious MIND food, regular exercise with coach John Pepper and stress management with master park_bear’s QiGong to even the potential benefits of a cup of coffee, a glass of red wine, a nature walk in the sun for your NIR, lots of supplements under the guidance of melatonin-Art and not to forget a positive mindset. So let's tackle Parkinson's with a whole lot of optimism, certainly with these recent new treatment methods such as the nicotinamide riboside from Tzoulis team.

I am not sure why you are saying this as a response to my question, which was "Anyone familiar with this compound?"

[Esperanto in reply to gomelgo]

No it was a reaction to Tzoulis' statement, who uses the mantra that no delay of PD is possible to date, probably to make his own research even more interesting. By constantly repeating this like my neurologist, you unwittingly set up a nocebo.
