Aryuveda: APanchakarm

[CV119]

Anyone heard or tried it? Looked it up here and saw a post from 10 years ago with not a lot of feedback.

If anyone has tried it and would like to share their experience, please do

With due respect to Ayurvedic treatment, Panchakarma is a rejuvanting process. One certainly feels good for a while. It is not a cure. It is more to get out of low syndrome and get your self charged.

Thank you for the feedback

That's it - here is some more information - and this is just a start about Ayurvedic treatment

One example in the Ayurvedic tradition is the herb called "Ashwagandha" also called "winter cherry" and classified as a rasayana, which means a rejuvenative herb

Do a little checking and here are some suggested benefits of Ashwagandha for PD

Neuroprotective Effects

Protects Neurons: Ashwagandha helps protect neurons from oxidative stress and apoptosis (cell death), which are common issues in PD.

Regeneration: Studies suggest that ashwagandha can regenerate parts of neurons, potentially counteracting damage that leads to PD.

Anti-inflammatory Properties

Reduces Inflammation: Chronic inflammation is a contributing factor in PD, and ashwagandha's anti-inflammatory properties can help reduce this inflammation.

Antioxidant Support

Reduces Oxidative Stress: Ashwagandha contains compounds that help neutralize free radicals, reducing oxidative stress and protecting brain cells.

Cognitive and Motor Function

Improves Cognitive Function: Ashwagandha may improve cognitive function and reduce anxiety, which can be beneficial for PD patients.

Reduces Tremors and Cramps: Some studies have shown that ashwagandha can reduce tremors and cramps in PD patients

If you want sources, do a google search

Thank you kindly for your feedback. Any sources of Ashwagandha you recommend to get them from? also any specific preparation?

[PHILCAM in reply to CV119]

The recommended dosage of Ashwagandha for Parkinson's Disease (PD) can vary, but most research suggests taking 250-500 mg per day for at least one month

Check out Amazon - many choices

Also check out Ceylon Cinnamon

Ceylon cinnamon has shown promise in supporting brain health and potentially slowing the progression of Parkinson's Disease (PD). Research suggests that Ceylon cinnamon can help normalize neurotransmitter levels, protect neurons, and improve motor functions in animal models of PD

I had tried Ashwagandha and Bacopa Monnieri and I feel it was beneficial especially for stress and muscles health.
