I recently found the web pages of Steven Shackel, an ALS patient, who
describes there his extensive research of dietary supplements,
especially anti-oxidents, and his successes in using them in his
struggle against his own neurodegenerative disease.  Because
anti-oxidents are thought to provide a degree of neuroprotection in
Parkinson's disease, Shackel's information is probably relevant to
PD as well.  See http://www.goulburn.net.au/~shack.

My own neurologist, Dr. Fazzini, now suggests Coenzyme Q10,
glutathione, NADH and ginko biloba as possibly useful for PD
patients.
