Bonnie, I think that you are on a wonderful program and my father is on a
similiar one, but I found it necessary to have a hair analysis done with
follow-up urine and blood tests, now I am sure of where my father stands
on nutrient deficiencies and toxic elements, it aided me tremendously in
his program. Best Wishes Linda Forrest's Mom

>Hello listmembers,

>     I had a file attached to my previous post that didn't follow thru. I am
>writing now to tell my story. I am on the list mainly to gain info for my
>father who was diagnosed pd 6 mo ago. I have also gained many insights for
>myself & would like to sahre something with you.
>     I, as Ivan did, find help from antioxidents. Since I started consuming
>the antioxidents & minerals, I  have been able to cut back on my meds. (No,
>they are not for PD, but the principle is still there). There are long range
>side effects with some meds that I didn't look forward to & I am now sleeping
>better at night, & am calmer & more energetic during the day.
>    For anyone interested, I am taking the following regimen
>OPC Grapeseed extract  w/ herbal bleand is a VERY powerful antioxident (found
>to be 50 x  greater than Vit. E & 20 x greater than Vit. C)
>Essential Minerals is a blend of some 70 minerals & trace minerals. It
>doesn't taste too bad either. (about like Ivan said)
>Vitamin C + CoEnzyme Q10 (the CoQ10 helps my heart which likes to race)
>And as for a diet aid, I use something called Slimcaps. It really reduces my
>desire for food & gives me energy without giving me a high.
>     Yes, I do buy these at a "member price" but I consume them solely for
>the benefit of my health, which I have noticed a big change in since I
>started them.
>     As for symptoms of PD, an elderly friend who is in the later stages of
>PD relies on these same products, & a few others that I have not mentioned. I
>understand that Vera is not even taking her PD meds any longer as they no
>longer help her while her stamina, strenght & energy has increased with these
>products. That does not mean that everyone will find help - I had doubts
>myself.but gave it chance.. And at my last dr. visit, he was pleased with
>test results.
>     If anyone would like info on what I partake, you may contact me at
>[log in to unmask] or Dianne (who knows Vera even better than I) can be reached
>at [log in to unmask]
>     May the Superior Being be with each & every one of you.
