More from Gods notebook...
The efficacy of synthetic
levodopa
(without carbidopa) has been compared to that of natural
levodopa
(Mucuna) using rats with experimentally induced parkinsonism. The natural
levodopa
proved to be two times as effective at improving symptoms [32].

Ways various PD treatments deplete essential chemicals.
https://www.dovepress.com/parkinsonrsquos-disease-managing-reversible-neurodegeneration-peer-reviewed-fulltext-article-NDT The above is an interesting read, including various pathways that are depleted with PD treatments. Also this was interesting: Should mucuna and 5-HTP be used instead of sinemet

Since my last post a lot has happened. The care in the new home is so much better and mum is much calmer. Unfortunately since her admission 2 weeks ago her MSA symptoms have come thick and fast - some incontinence, balance problems, UTI infections, and her BP is now all over the place, with 2 instances

T or F--lower dose of C/L means you can take it longer?
This would be 62.5 my of
Levodopa
. It did practically nothing, but he thought that doing it this way meant he would have a long, long span of time when he could use the C/L. Then, at my insistence, he increased the dose to 1/2 tablet--125 mg of L, 3x a day.

Herbs for PD
For example, passion flower was found to improve the effectiveness of the drug L-dpa (
levodopa
). It reduces the passive tremor when used with L-dopa. (more than when using L-dopa alone.) However, passion flower only has minimal effect if used alone.

Mucuna re-try?
Did Hinz protocol for 8 or 9 months. ANY B-6 caused me to vomit within mere minutes of ingestion. I was using an ND for guidance at $300 per hour. Let me tell you, he spoke slowly and repetitively! Since it was all out of pocket, it was not financially sustainable. The practitioner had me up to 18gm

Pharmacology of levodopa/carbidopa
I understand the half life of
levodopa
is one and a half hours. But there still seems to be some effect for 12 or 13 hours after my last dose. I take 100/25 every 2 to 2 1/2 hours starting at 9 AM with my last dose at 6 PM.

A few questions about how the B1 Therapy is currently administered, and an idea on how to improve results.
First question I'm wondering about is those of you who have been experimenting with B1, what methodology have you been using to try to find the correct dosage? Also, what method does Dr. Constantini recommend for determining the individual dosage amount needed for each person? A thought I had was if

Messed up oral biome
(pocketing) Also, I noticed when I am trying to eat but am also wearing off my drug, it’s even more difficult because it seems that my saliva could be affected by the level of
levodopa
. (and of course the mouth muscle is not working as well when I am wearing off).

Change to Carbidopa Levodopa CR, dykinesia, neck dystonia

B1 Tyamine - how much to start?
I am also taking Carbidopa/
levodopa
25/100 the times a day. I also take a small amount of L-dopa (1/8 tsp) from NutriVita. I was wondering, how much B1 should I start taking? Don’t want to OD on too many things. I was diagnosed in April.

levodopa
(L-dopa) pharmacokinetics following two different doses of mucuna preparation and compared them with standard L-dopa/carbidopa (LD/CD).

Does L-Tyrosine also cause augmentation
I have recently come off an OTC L-Dopa supplement because it was causing augmentation. I'm trying to get my dopamine levels to restore naturally and am wondering whether I should take L-Tyrosine (which is the amino acid building block for L-Dopa, found in eggs, cheese, meat, etc). I would be doing so
