Thank you for sharing; interesting!
Just listening about how pesticides such as Lindane can be in cheese, and how they can kill dopamine producing cells.
Summary:
'I outline a four-step plan for Parkinson's disease. 1) The first step is to relieve the symptoms and allow levodopa (and tyrosine) to work more effectively. Lowering protein intake to just what we need, rather than the usual excess, allows our bodies to transport both levodopa and tyrosine to the brain. I document studies where this one change has cut symptoms in half. 2) A second step is to eat certain foods that increase the expression of tyrosine hydroxylase to allow more dopamine to be made inside our bodies. Sesame tahini is one example. Have you ever wondered how all those dopamine-producing neurons in the brain were killed off? 3) The third approach is to identify the specific environmental pollutants to avoid in order to preserve the remaining dopamine-producing cells. 4) Finally, we must protect our brain cells from further damage to ensure that there is no further progression of Parkinson's disease. Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory foods are the key here. My hope is that this video helps you as much as it has helped those we have worked with, Steve Blake, author.
Thank you
I find it rather humorous. I call it the rules of dopamine conservation. No eating an hour before or after meds. Avoid eating large amounts of protein, avoid dairy. Look for foods that can boost your dopamine. Eat clean and organic if possible. Side note organic ain't cheap. Avoid stress and anything that can cause you to burn dopamine excessively. All this gets a little bit much sometimes.
Thanks for posting - I learned a lot!
Thanks for the post! Great information regarding nutrition that can be easily applied to make an impact.
Genistein sounds interesting. Never heard of it.
Thank you for sharing this! I had not encountered him before. I just went down the rabbit hole taking notes on this and several of his videos - jam packed with helpful info.
