People with Parkinson’s disease are at higher than normal risk for osteoporosis and vitamin D deficiency. Regular weight-bearing exercise, exposure to sunlight, and a variety of supplements and dietary changes may be helpful in preventing osteoporosis.
A twice-weekly, 14-week program of intensive exercise has been shown to significantly improve the signs and symptoms of Parkinson’s Disease. Athletic training included resistance exercises in water to increase strength, as well as exercises increasing flexibility and balance.
There is substantial preliminary evidence that exposure to certain organochlorine insecticides (e.g., lindane [Kwell®, Kildane®, Scabene®] and dieldrin [Dieldrite]) may contribute to the development of Parkinson’s disease. In California, death from Parkinson’s disease increased by about 40% in all Californian counties reporting use of restricted agricultural pesticides since the 1970s compared with those reporting none. Avoiding contact with pesticides and pesticide residues may be an important preventive measure for Parkinson’s and other diseases. Interestingly, consumption of the fat substitute olestra appears to increase elimination of certain organochlorine pesticides in the feces. However, no scientific studies have tested olestra as a possible treatment or preventive measure against Parkinson’s disease. Moreover, since olestra consumption may be associated with other health risks, such as depletion of beta-carotene, people with Parkinson’s should consult with their doctor before consuming products containing olestra.

Provides essential support to maintain optimal nutritional status.
High potency formula which helps alleviate symptoms and aid in recovery from the selected health concern.
Parkinson's Disease (PD) is a degenerative disease affecting the nervous system. The underlying cause is unknown, but symptoms appear when there is a lack of dopamine in the brain. This natural formula targeted at PD contains powerful antioxidants that protect brain cells against free radical damage. Optimal nutritional support for nervous system functioning is also addressed by this formula.
Main Functions:
This disease may start almost imperceptibly, with a mild to moderate tremor of the hand or hands while at rest, a general slow and heavy feeling, muscular stiffness, slowness of movement, and a tendency to tire more easily than usual. Parkinson's disease is one of the most common debilitating diseases in the United States. While the reasons for the loss of brain cells that causes Parkinson's disease remains unknown, a number of different theories have been developed. Amino acids that are converted into dopamine are therefore included in this formula. Coenzyme Q 10 allows cells to produce energy. NADH is a form of vitamin B3 that is important in the creation and transfer of chemical energy.
Ingredients Description:
Vitamin B6 is essential for normal brain and nervous system functioning. CoQ-10, Vitamin E and Vitamin C are all powerful antioxidants that help protect cells in the brain. L-Methionine supplies sulfur to the body for the synthesis of glutathione, an important antioxidant in the body. Flaxseed and Amino Acid Mix nourish the brain. L-Tyrosine has effects on neurotransmitters which may affect several health conditions. The acetyl group of Acetyl L-Carnitine contributes to the production of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, which is required for mental function. Ginkgo Biloba helps maintain peripheral circulation to the brain. Increased Phosphatidylserine plays a role in neurotransmission and may support brain function and boost memory. NADH concentrations may result in improved production of essential neurotransmitters.
