Do any of you use amino acid therapy along with other vitamin supplements?

Have just been diagnosed with PD. Current symptoms are right side tremors, walking gate not smooth, and partial lose of smell.

  1. Hi , I don't have a lot of information on amino acids to offer but I did find an article you may find helpful. Of course, it's always a good idea to talk to your medical provider about any supplementation you are considering. Best wishes, April - ParkinsonsDisease.net Team

    1. Bought this book "Fighting Parkinson’s... and Winning, A memoir of my recovery from
      Parkinson’s Disease" by Howard Shifke. Very interesting alternative therapy, see also his site, www.fightingparkinsonsdrugfree.com. You could also try the mixed approach. I still haven't decided.

      1. I found both the book and the website very interesting and worth considering although like you I haven’t made a definitive decision.I have worked closely with my medical team to find the right medication for me and have stopped several others. Thea
