Parkinson’s and Zinc
My husband has Parkinson’s. He is in his 7th year. The freezing issues have continued to be a problem that meds haven’t been able to get under control. He contracted Covid the first of January. He received a Bamlanivimab drip. He was taking his vitamins and Zinc Copper as well. He recovered from Covid within 7 days.
We noticed the freezing has decreased sufficiently. At least 90%. It has been three weeks since Covid. He is still having limited amounts of freezing. The only thing we can attribute it to is the Zinc copper. I am curious to know if others who have been on zinc have experience the same thing.
What does of Zinc has he been taking?
You mention Zinc Copper - is that the same as ZINC?
No. Zinc with copper at a ratio of 15 units of Zinc to One unit of Copper heals neural damage. It's their combination that is miraculous.
My brother had a major freezing problem- but he has been taking ZINC- wonder if it could be from the Infusion he received? Sure wish we could decrease it.
He is taking Zinc Copper by Solaray. I did some research and found this article:
https://news.wisc.edu/zinc-discovery-may-shed-light-on-parkinsons-alzheimers/ There are other articles you can research as well. I don’t know for sure it is the zinc copper or maybe the infusion. He is still not having freezes. I hope your brother can find some relief as well. Keep me posted.Thank you - I really appreciate it. I will also communicate with his neurologist to see what he thinks. I did read some that says copper helps the zinc work better. He’s been taking ZINC but not with copper. I sure wish we could figure something out. It’s wonderful that it has helped your husband. I hope it sticks !
