Parkinson's: Understanding its more than a movement disorder may speed a cure
It is increasingly evident that Parkinson disease (PD) is not a single entity. PD is a heterogeneous disorder, meaning no two individuals have the same symptoms, disease course or treatment response. Defining subtypes of PD further helps understand underlying mechanisms, predict disease course, and

Holy Cow. Here's the best review article on PD and synucleinopathies I have ever seen
Here is a very robust article on PD neurodegeneration. Read this and you will be up-to-date on what we know about how Parkinson's occurs and what causes it to progress. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5421223/ Fair warning, it is a fairly technical article. One of the things we need to

Why Roundup weedkiller is bad for you - love your weeds!
Glyphosate is the active ingredient in Roundup. It has been linked to triggering auto-immunity including Celiac's as it is regularly spread on wheat fields. It damages the gut and does not break down in the body. Residues have been found in corn, soy, sugar and rape seed oils. You cannot wash it off

Aunt Bean from Tennessee, United States sends greetings from America. I have Parkinson's Disease. I treat my PD naturally and do very well.
Just a quick note from Aunt Bean. I depend on fava beans for most of my PD symptom relief. Making my own L-dopa extract with both the stem top buds and fava bean pods in brandy. Also using herbs, vitamins , organically grown vegies from our farm here in TN. It is a lot of work, but the fresh air, and

Hydrotherapy
A few weeks ago my PT suggested trying hydrotherapy to see if any progression in my general condition could be achieved. After years of being on dry land I decided to take on the challenge.
