Hi: I am takng 600 mg first thing in the morning. Since this is a geeral and powwerful anti-oxident this should be helpful in all aspects of Parkinson's Disease. However, I should add I am just a PhD and therefore I cannot officially recommend anything to anybody. I can only share my experience. I might add that I have been diagnosed with PD for the past 10 years (probably had it much longer than that); however, I never took any medication for that except last year I included 1.5 pill of sinemet/day, since this supposed to help protect the dopaminergic cells. I take other supplements very regularly including thyroxin, condition-specific brain essentials (Sawanson), Goji extract capsules, Aspirin 81 mg pills, Turmeric etc. I must say, so far I have been very lucky, and I am still able to walk, jog, and carry on more or less normal life activities. Best of luck. R.
