I've been talking to another person who deals with PD and he is looking more and more in these supports for slowing down progression of PD. So some of you may be dealing with PD or know others who do, so you can share this info, if you care to. I had a cousin who lost his battle with PD a couple yrs ago.

Do you realize that you have linked to nothing more than a supplement commercial?

Testimonials (which may or may not be from real people) are not evidence that the product does anything for Parkinson's disease, at a cost of $100 per month.

I know exactly what I'm doing, thank you very much. Just about everything I take is from testimonials of others and companies, not pharma industry which doesn't do too bad for themselves.

Too bad a lot of the drugs people NEED to take doesn't cost $100 a month or less. When I hear drugs cost upwards of $1000's per month, good grief.

Expect it to get worse as even more and more physicians are looking to natural medicine after seeing the side effects and results of the drugs being pushed by Big Pharma.

Under "do no harm", it would be difficult anymore for anyone with a conscience to prescribe some of the stuff.

Natural medicine isn't a "one size fits all", of course, neither is allopathic medicine yet that is the way they attempt to work things.

I encourage everyone to read everything they can and then make an informed decision, not as easy as just letting someone else do the thinking, but well worth it in the end.

I find posts to companies sales sites kinda odd. It's the equivalent of me posting links to webpages for Enbrel, Viagra, and lovastatin.

No context, just links to people selling stuff.
