With the enormous threat of legal action for malpractice you will rarely find any mainstream healthcare professional that will tell you to take NADH or any other non-FDA approved medicine, herb, supplement, etc. Our feeling is the neuros can do their job but in reality, mainstream medicine does have limitations. It is our responsibility, as the patient and 'our own best friend' to 'pick up' where mainstream medicine leaves off. NADH is not a secretive potion; it's been around for a long time and is used by many. Certainly in an 'ideal world' there could and should be further testing by the FDA however, Jeff is only 45, our kids are only 12 and 9 with baseball games to go to, tennis with our daughter, family picnics for us to go on, etc; I guess we just decided that we can't wait for the FDA. >Will anyone using NADH please share their therapeutic experiences-positive or >negative?? Jeff (45/7) began taking NADH last August after fatigue had become a major problem. He was hardly able to function for a few hours at a time without needing to 'rest' and even then he was always tired. Within 2 weeks of starting the NADH, his energy was 'normal'. The tremors were noticeably reduced although that varies now. After 7 years he still can play tennis, golfs, swims, helps me run a business and teaches 4 classes at a local college. He has his problems; he's slow and there is some tremor; handwriting is becoming 'micro' but overall, after 7 years we feel he's doing exceptionally well. Is it the NADH alone? No, we feel it is a combination of the meds from the neuro, vitamins, herbs, diet, exercise and NADH. We know NADH will not work for everyone. It seem to us that NADH is not as effective with people who fall, for example but of course, those are our own unscientific obervations. It is expensive, Jeff takes 10 mgs daily with orange juice, but he wouldn't consider giving it up. We feel confident that a breakthrough is in our future but until that time PD will progress in Jeff only with the most fierce fight we can give it.
