Existing therapiesdo not slow disease progression. In conventional medicine, PD is largelyconsidered irreversible and progressive.Dr. Mischley has been treating patients with PD for almost a decade anddoes not believe the disease need be either progressive or irreversible.It is her medical opinion that PD progression can be halted, and possiblyreversed, with proper nutrition and optimization of biochemical function.Both her clinical experience and her understanding of the literature supportthis perspective.This book has several functions:- It is a science-based reference manual.- It is inspiring and empowering to patients.- It is educational for both patients and neurologists.- It is entertaining.- It fosters an understanding between conventional and complementaryproviders.Chapters on , Alpha-Lipoic Acid, Aluminum, Antioxidants, Beta-carotene, Calorie Restriction, Carnitine, Chelation, Cholesterol, Choline, Coenzyme Q-10, Constipation, Creatine, Curcumin (Turmeric), Dairy, DHA (fish oil), Fava Beans, Glutathione, H. pylori (Helicobacter pylori), Homocysteine, Iron, Manganese, Marijuana (Cannabis sativa), Mucuna pruriens, Velvet bean, Cowhage, Niacin, Tea, Vitamin B6, Vitamin D, and other relevant topics.
