My tolerance for the liquid topped out at about 4 mgs a day to prevent too much sleep disturbance. When I checked out Annetta's regimen I discovered I was already using many of the same supplements. I added DHEA and still take it, I used the liquid deprenyl for a while and would use it again, I never did get the Cell Guard, and probably should. I think she also uses Sun Chlorella, which I love but don't take with any regularity mainly because my threshhold for pill-popping was crossed many moons ago, and you have to eat lots of those little green pills. I believe her program has definite merit although I don't think I would be able to discontinue sinemet as she did. I would also have trouble with the huge volume of pills/supplements and the required religious dosing, probably a character flaw on my part. BTW, we just caught the tail end of a news documentary on nutrition and down's syndrome...studies showing that the down's babies main deficiency is an inability to properly assimilate nutrients, causing ever-increasing damage due to basically malnutrition. Some very convincing shots of down's kids who are using a high-nutrient formula, very rich in amino acids, doing really well compared to their degenerating counterparts. I for one am making a New Year's resolution to be more diligent in the taking of my supplements, and wiser about dietary choices. I noted a BBB article stating that they have found a way to get chemo drugs into the brain past the barrier by injecting sugar (manitol) into the brain, it creates a very brief window of time that the blood brain barrier sorta relaxes and the chemo drugs can pass. Makes me wonder how my excessive use of sugar as my main food group has compromised my neurological health. Kathie Tollifson [log in to unmask]
