In a double-blind trial, administration of 1,200 mg of coenzyme Q10 per day for 16 months to people with early Parkinson's disease significantly slowed the progression of the disease, compared with a placebo. Smaller amounts of CoQ10 were slightly more effective than placebo, but the difference was not statistically significant.
Some preliminary studies have indicated that high dietary intakes of antioxidant nutrients, especially vitamin E, are associated with a low risk of Parkinson’s disease, even though Parkinson’s patients are not deficient in vitamin E. The correlation between protection from Parkinson’s and dietary vitamin E may be not be due to the vitamin E itself, however. Legumes (beans and peas) contain relatively high amounts of vitamin E. Independent of their vitamin E content, consumption of legumes has been associated with low risk of Parkinson’s disease. In other words, high vitamin E intake may be a marker for diets high in legumes, and legumes may protect against Parkinson’s disease for reasons unrelated to their vitamin E content...

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.
