      I agree. I believe that the idea of excessive prescription use is leading to higher death rates and higher crime/ psychological risk factors. Look at what's happening. Something is way off- This idea of overmedicated people is leading to a underperforming economy, society, home life, work life, even school systems failures.

    Having been diagnosed with PD more than 4 years ago I would certainly agree that the non-motor symptoms are much worse than the stiffness and shuffling. I was amazed to learn how many non-motor symptoms there are you can feel like you're drowning sometimes because there are so many of them. This had a great info

    Hello there i am going through the video. I have an issue since puberty mostly and now i am of age 28. My issue is every muscle in my body is slowed and very tight when performing any instant action. My body takes usually 10-20 seconds to make my muscles move smoothly. This often causes me to not move my body in emergency and in such instances my body freezes. I would like to understand more about this issue as it is effecting my way of life. Any recommendations on how i should look into this issue would be great. I remember being diagnosed during an ECG With something called a Thompsons diseases.

    Love this description" I think of dopamine as the popular kid who got all the attention...but maybe are we looking under the wrong lamp post? I always found the person sitting on the back porch at the party more interesting... And so on... "We are looking at urine and hair samples on MRI - inside of your mitochondria - to understand energy production ....and then training a truffle hunting dog breed from Italy to detect PD via ear wax. Bravo Dr Mischley for all this great work. We would love you to trial infrared laser on the gut for Parkinsons as this has been shown to reduce PD symptoms by stimulating the cell mitochondria and digestion, gut-brain axis, absorption of Levodopa also.

  • @symbyxbiome
    @symbyxbiome Před rokem

    Dr Mischley is doing some exciting and fantastic research on Parkinsons. One trial published showed "that a plant- and fish-based diet is associated with the lowest PD severity score. Fresh vegetables, fresh fruit, nuts and seeds, fish, olive oil, wine, coconut oil, fresh herbs, and the use of spices were all associated with statistically significant lower rates of disease progression."
