This is a very strange way to let people know about such a thing.
IF, and I mean, IF this is indeed a cure for PD, for people to take it
seriously, it needs to come to us by conventional means. For all kinds of
obvious reasons.
It makes me a little angry that someone would be so bold as to say in their
subject line of the email: "Parkinson Cure Found". It bothers me because I
actually held my breath at that statement!! This is not something to be
tossed around with such carelessness, this is something that we pray for
EVERYDAY!
I apologize for being so skeptical, but something with a little more backing
needs to support this before I'd send my $27. Seems like a scam to
me....Who could tolerate such a thing? And this, frankly, could be very
hurtful!!
If anyone knows more about this and has some REAL hard facts about what this
person is talking about with real studies performed and documented, etc. I
would be interested.
Ethical? Very questionable.

Hi,
Here is a FAQ list which will guide you throgh your questions regarding
permanent cure for PD. Please read it carefully as it contains vital
information for total recovery from PD.
1) CAN PARKINSON'S DISEASE BE REALLY CUERED?
The answer is YES. An Indian Ayurvedic doctor has done pioneering work that
can really cure PD up to 90% within 2 years. The trembling will almost stop
within 2 weeks.
2) WHY HAVE I RECEIVED THIS E-MAIL?
I search for people who have been suffering from PD for years and are in
search of permanent cure. Normally, they are fed up with their present
medications, which are either ineffective or only relieve the symptoms
temporarily, and this phase is followed by relapse of the disease. At some
point of time you had posted a message on Internet in public domain seeking
genuine help for PD, and I happened to read it, and hence I am sending you
this e-mail in response.
3) HOW CAN YOU HELP PATIENTS OF PARKINSON'S DISEASE FOR WHICH MODERN MEDICAL
SCIENCE HAS YET TO FIND A CURE? You could be either a caretaker of a person
suffering from PD or a patient yourself. I am in a position to refer the
patient to a legendary Ayurvedic medical practitioner who has cured scores
of PD patients till date. This is not an exaggeration, but a reality. I have
a graduate degree that makes me belong to Medical Fraternity and enable me
to generate such referral for the sole benefit of the patient, on receipt of
a nominal one-time fee.
4) WHAT ARE THE EXPERIENCES OF THE OTHER PATIENTS WITH THIS AYURVEDIC
TREATMENT IN INDIA? Mr. Zakheim, a well-known art restoration expert in the
United States was preparing himself for years of agony after contacting PD.
Mr. Zakheim says in a videotaped testimony that "within 2 weeks of starting
the Ayurvedic Treatment, the trembling reduced and in 2 years, I was almost
cured." Celebrities from across the globe, from a variety of fields, have
sought the Ayurvedic treatment for PD and found themselves cured. The very
first US citizen who received this treatment was Mr. Herbert. German film
star Christine Rucker has even offered her farm in Switzerland to start
Ayurvedic retreat to this legendary doctor. The remedies are time tested and
have descended from one generation to another and have attained a level of
maturity. The concoctions are made from a variety of herbs and traces of
precious stones like emeralds, rubies, topaz, pearls, amber, and even
corals are used. All this talk of celebrities and precious stones might turn
off the reader for a moment, because a disease has nothing to do with
stardom and can contact any ordinary person, and many of us have never had
the luxury to have these precious stones. It is a known fact that an average
PD patient has to spend US $ 5000 a year on his medications. The cost of
Ayurvedic treatment will be less than one fifth of this above-mentioned cost
and the treatment do not require any neurosurgery.
5) WHY DO I HAVE TO PAY FEES AND HOW MUCH IS IT?
I am aware that it is ethically wrong to look at the situation from business
point of view considering the never ending agony that person has to face,
not only on the part of the disease, but also on social, economical, and
family front. Hence, the fee is bare minimum US $27 (twenty-seven) to
defray the cost incurred by me to devote time to search for a person
suffering from PD and pay my ISP provider. This is certainly less than an
average PD patient normally spends on his 2-day medication. To become a

Pin: 415001
Country: INDIA
Please notify me by e-mail before sending cheque.
Please include your personal details and do not forget to enter your E-MAIL
ADDRESS in the letter delivered by post.
6) WILL I HAVE TO TRAVEL TO INDIA TO SEEK THE TREATMENT?
This legendary Ayurvedic doctor has traveled to US 21 times and countries
like Brazil and Greenland curing PD patients. Although it is not mandatory
to travel to India, it is certainly desirable if it is feasible for you. Do
not worry. If it is not possible for you alternatives modes of treatment are
still available.
7) WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF I IGNORE THIS E-MAIL AND JUST SIMPLY DELETE THIS
MESSAGE? I am really sorry to say that it will be the most unfortunate thing
to happen from your point of view. It means you are willing to live the same
quality of life you have been living for the past few years, and if you are
recently diagnosed you must have prepared yourself for years of agony.
Unfortunately, millions of dollars are spent by the federal government every
year to promote research on PD, but with little success. I can only hope
that some breakthrough will occur in your country. You have right to remain
skeptical the about time- tested Ayurvedic drug therapy, if you find
rational and reasonable to do so. I am just making a genuine effort to help
you, because I am a compassionate person, and I respect human life in any
part of the world.
THANKS A LOT FOR READING THIS MESSAGE.
Have a nice day!
