They help relieve tremor, stiffness, and loss of muscle coordination that prevent a normal life.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">PARKINSON&#8217;S DISEASE &#8211; WHAT IT IS<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Parkinson&#8217;s disease, named after the English physician who in the early 19th century described the most common degenerative disease of the nervous system, affects millions of people around the world. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Usually attacks after years age of, but only five percent of patients are men younger than 40 years. It is more common in men than in women. Initial symptoms are mild, but in the course of the disease are always worse.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">PARKINSON&#8217;S DISEASE &#8211; CAUSES<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">For people suffering from this disease kills cells in the brain called the basal ganglia and ceases to produce dopamine, a substance that is involved in transmitting impulses between nerves. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Lack of dopamine causes progressive stiffness, tremors, and loss of muscle coordination, which are typical for this disease. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">In most cases, it is impossible to determine the cause of the disease, although it is known that a small number of diseases can be the source of viral brain infection, antipsychotic drugs, and prolonged exposure to certain substances or herbal toxins.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">WHAT ARE THE SYMPTOMS OF PARKINSON&#8217;S DISEASE<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">&#8211; Tremor or trembling of limbs and muscle stiffness<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">&#8211; Slow and shuffling gait<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">&#8211; Drooling, infrequent blinking<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">&#8211; Difficulty in swallowing and speaking<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">&#8211; Urinary incontinence and constipation<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">&#8211; Anxiety, depression, confusion, and some memory loss<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">WHAT ACCESSORIES ARE USED ON THE DISEASE PARKINSON&#8217;S DISEASE<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Anyone suffering from this disease must be under strict medical supervision and should not take any supplements without consulting their doctor.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Multivitamin and multimineral products used in conjunction with the accessories listed in the table can help reduce or slow the development of symptoms, particularly if you are in the early stages of the disease. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Results can be seen in about eight weeks, but the supplements should be used long-term. They can be used singly or in combination, but only after consulting your doctor. Some, such as vitamin B6, may react adversely with conventional drugs for Parkinson&#8217;s disease.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Most of the supplements, including vitamin B6, act to increase the production of brain chemicals dopamine, whose levels are the people with this disease often full. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Coenzyme Q10 and NADH, related to vitamin B, niacin, vitamin E, and vitamin C, are antioxidants that help protect cells, including cells that produce dopamine. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Vitamins C and E may be particularly effective in patients who have not yet begun to use traditional medicines. Omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil or flaxseed oil nourish the nervous tissue, and they may increase levels of dopamine. Antioxidant nutritional substances listed in the table should be used in conjunction with these essential fatty acids.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">PARKINSON&#8217;S DISEASE &#8211; FACTS AND TIPS<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">&#8211; The good sources of vitamin B6, which helps the brain, include one avocado, potatoes, bananas, fish, and poultry.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">&#8211; While there is still no reliable treatment for Parkinson&#8217;s disease, medicinal herbs may strengthen the brain tissue and manage the balance of chemicals involved in nerve function. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;\">This way, they can help patients manage their condition and sometimes slow the progression of the disease. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Parkinson&#8217;s Disease Parkinson&#8217;s disease, a slowly progressing brain disease, can not be cured, but new advances in treatment can improve the quality of life of&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"slim_seo":{"title":"Parkinson's Disease And What is the Treatment - Parkinson&#039;s Disease","description":"Parkinson's Disease Parkinson's disease, a slowly progressing brain disease, can not be cured, but new advances in treatment can improve the quality of life of"},"_slim_seo_primary_term_category":0,"_slim_seo_primary_term_post_tag":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3829","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-parkinsons","wpcat-1-id"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mickeylieberman.com\/parkinsons\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3829","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mickeylieberman.com\/parkinsons\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mickeylieberman.com\/parkinsons\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mickeylieberman.com\/parkinsons\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mickeylieberman.com\/parkinsons\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3829"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mickeylieberman.com\/parkinsons\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3829\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mickeylieberman.com\/parkinsons\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3829"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mickeylieberman.com\/parkinsons\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3829"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mickeylieberman.com\/parkinsons\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3829"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
