Bob, My name is Kay Messiter and I have had pd for 16 yrs. A few years ago there was a "Dr Grinstein" in th e UK and he was trying to find someone to sponsor his product (in those days, if it is the same thing it was called "Factor Gimmel"). It was the worst tasting thing you can imagine but it DEFINITELY WORKED. It was extremely fast acting but it cost a fortune and I certainly didn't/don't have that sort of money. I had to stop taking it in the end due to the money aspect but I did have a folder of testimonials which has gone now. I personally didn't take it long enough to find out if it reversed pd symptoms but if they had found a way of making it more affordable I'd be the first to line up... kind regards Kay ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bob Allison" <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Tuesday, June 01, 2004 4:42 AM Subject: Re: Neurogenic diet > Peggy My only thought is whether the findings have been scientifically > tested and whether the tests have been published in the literature and > subjected to peer review. > I think we can all agree that a healthy lifestyle and diet are directionally > correct.
