With regard to infections and Parkinsons disease, in my wife’s case, taking B12, folic acid and other supplements were not effective in raising her hemoglobin. I even tried that carao fruit advertised on the web…nothing there either!

When she had a UTI infection 2 years ago, her hemoglobin dropped drastically to 77, which is about 35 points below the min range! Therefore, we know that infections of various kinds do adversely affect hemoglobin.

Infections and Parkinsons Disease

Well, this is interesting. Perhaps her primary problem is rooted in an infection. Have you been following my work on the role of infections and Parkinson’s disease as they affect the function of the body and aggravate neurological symptoms? It may well be productive to pursue the possibility that an infection is the primary culprit. I would certainly place it on my list of primary suspects.

It is well known that infections can cause Parkinson’s symptoms. Lyme disease, for example, presents the same symptoms as Parkinson’s. We also have evidence that taking LDN reduces symptoms in some people. Low dose naltrexone (or LDN) boosts the immune system. When the immune system functions at peak capacity the body is able to eliminate the infections that can cause the symptoms

Your fortune for the day is:

“Your determination to find the answer will yield a positive outcome.”
