Subject: RE: Parkinson’s and diet.



Pittsburg, Kansas

There is not as much discussion about Parkinson's as Alzheimer's but from what I have ran across about the same things apply. Sugar is definitely a negative association. It is a metabolic disease and many of the metabolic diseases respond favorably to a ketogenic diet which is low in sugar and carbohydrates in general. It is a low inflammation diet which is helpful.

Here are some videos that might have helpful information.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5sYClVQyMLM  interview of Curtis

I have not watched the last one but found it in a search. The interviewer usually does a good job and has good guests on which is why I provided the link without watching it. I will watch it.

One thing about diet change is it costs almost nothing to try for a month. A lot of potential gain for little risk. Thing of it is, it can be almost impossible to convince someone with dementia to make the change. Have a couple that are good friends that wife has pretty advanced Parkinson's. I shudder when she partakes of her beloved ice cream and sweets, thinking how a different way of eating might help her. But he does not want to deny her pleasures and she is not able to understand so there it stands. It is a tough deal for those dealing with it.

Best thing in my opinion is to avoid getting it. And based on what I have learned, a better diet is a step in the right direction. For both Parkinson's and Alzheimer's.
