To Diane Turner Jeff (husband, pd diagnosed 6yrs, 45) takes 4 2.5 pills a day, all at once on an empty stomach before breakfast. At the same time he started NADH, he also added Amantadine and several vitamin/herb supplements. Hardly a scientific method of added meds but he's pleased with the results. First and foremost his energy is back. The fatigue was becoming a MAJOR problem but that's gone now. There are times when the tremor is 80-90% gone, most of the time the tremor is reduced by at least 50%. Again,not scientific but the changes are noticable. People who had not seen Jeff for awhile comment how much better he's moving. We want to be very careful to specify that (for obvious reasons) we do not claim the NADH has been an instant cure. How much credit it gets for Jeff's improvement OR the NADH in combination with any/all vitamins or herbs is anyone's guess at this time. Bottom line is Jeff feels and performs better. We feel strongly that everything he's taking now is equally important to the cause - the antioxidents, herbs, etc all are helping. Is this a placebo effect? Yes, no, maybe but Jeff's feeling is 'who cares....I feel better'. I do not take NADH. BTW, Jeff also takes Eldepryl 2x, Permax, Cogentin - he's been on these meds for awhile. Question: why will you choose 2.5 mgs or 10 mgs? Could you try, say, 5 mgs? Or any amount in between the 2.5 and 10. Jeff mentioned you might want to try Ginger tablets to combat dry mouth. He was having to chew gum because of dry mouth but since he's started taking ginger (and even drinking gingerale first thing in the morning) the dry mouth has disappeared.
